M'goun Circuit

Hiking Nomad Trails to the summit of M’Goun

M’goun lies in the beautiful Central High Atlas, and at 4068m is the second highest peak in Morocco. This five day trek takes us from Ait Bougmez, one of the most inviting and friendly trailheads in the High Atlas, to the summit of M’Goun along nomad trails, avoiding for the most part the trails of other trekking groups. Camping in wilderness locations, with only the occasional nomad family for company, it’s a perfect escape for weekend hiker to more experienced trekker. The summit is a non-technical climb offering some of the best views in Morocco over the south of the country to the fringes of the Sahara desert. En route to Ait Bougmez we visit the splendid Ouzoud Falls and post-trek there’s a chance to explore Morocco’s most exotic city, Marrakech.
