10-day Yoga and Climbing trip to the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco

The Todgha Gorge is one of the largest spots for climbing in Morocco. It is in the heart of the High Atlas Mountains in the south-east of the country. The gorge is made up of impressive 200-300 m walls around a river. There are about 500 bolted routes, both single-pitch and multi-pitch, ranging from 4a to 8b. So there is an amazing amount of options for climbers of all levels, spread around 30 sectors. Depending on the group, we’ll choose a sector every day that fits everybody’s levels and wishes best. You are always welcome to split from the main group and choose another sector or have a rest day.

Everybody is welcome to join on this trip! Even if you’ve never put on a climbing shoe. We work together with local climbing instructors to make sure that you can climb every day. There will be help finding routes and beta and there will be top-ropes either way.

If you would like more personal guidance to learn quickly to become an independent lead climber, we will look at an extra tailored course together with you. You can indicate your wishes and expectations when you’re signing up for the trip. If you are not sure whether you need/want this, don’t worry. We can always arrange things on the spot.

Make sure to contact me if you are feeling unsure or have any questions!

How can I get to Marrakech?

There is a shuttle bus that takes you to the city center or you can get a taxi. If you happen to have a bit more time for travelling, you could for example take the ferry from the South of Spain to the North of Morocco. It’s what I did and it was really fun:). There’s quite some options for trains and busses around the country. If you want some intel about travelling to or around Morocco, please send me a message. I’ll gladly help out.
