This time we travel to Morocco. With Engel and Ricardo, we climbed Mount Toubkal. With its 4,167mt, is the highest peak in North Africa. From the top, we experienced amazing views of the Atlas mountains. The documentary tells how the 2-day trek was organized and how difficult is to get to the top. Everyone can do it, but need to be prepared for a trek that is technically easy, but challenging from a physical standpoint. All started in the village of Imlil, at 1,750mt. The first day was easy, it took 6 hours, including long stop for lunch and filming,to reach the base camp at 3,200mt. We got there just in time before it started raining. The day after we woke up at 4am to start acending. It was a strenuous walk uphill, with a cold wind blowing and the sun coming out as we were approaching the top. After having enjoyed the view from the peak, we started descending. We took a de-tour to nearby mount Tibherine (3,880mt) to see the debris of a plane that crashed here in 1969. Apparently it was a cargo plane that was bringing ammunition to the Government of Biafra during the Nigerian civil war. As we descend to the valley, we got a small injury which forced one of us to finish the last few miles on a mule

I’ve climbed mount toubkal and I can say it is a one of a kind experience and is absolutely amazing, great video too.
I do 100% agree
you probably dont care at all but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Amos Mitchell instablaster :)
@Briar Ashton thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Briar Ashton DAMN IT ACTUALLY WORKED :O I just hacked my IG login after roughly 40 mins by using the site.
Just had to pay 15 bucks but definitely worth the price =)
Thank you so much you really help me out :D
AMAZING! I am not a Trekkie nor Mountaineer a walk around local parks is more like me. Reason I arrived here is because of the terrible earthquake (the epicenter Atlas mountains) yesterday 08 September 2023. I wanted to visit the area via RUclips. Interesting and I salute your fortitude. My condolences to those affected by the quake. From Texas 👋👋
Great video man I'm from morocco I wish I could climb it one day Thanks
Thanks. I hope you can do that one day
Cinematography is superb!!! National Geographic quality. Would I dare to climb with you folks? Nah, I am good!!!
I do that yesterday in 12hours Chrono... So im a Champion
welcome to morocco

Bella avventura e story telling molto interessante. ...non sapevamo che il Marocco avesse montagne cosí alte, si impara sempre qualcosa di interessante 👍😊
Yes, monti dell’Atlante sono alti anche se molto dolci, facili da camminare. Grazie mille!
Toubkal in marocco 4176 mt lo fatto il 14 08 2019 e bellissimo
Il toubkal dopo refugio non e facile lo fatto 14 08 2019
Wow your editing and story telling is very good. This is very underrated 😕
Thanks for bringing us with you on your journey to climbing the toubkal mountain, hope I can do it someday too.
Thank you very much!

Bellissimi posti...complimenti x il video
Grazie mille!
جبل توبقال، يحمل في اسمه السحر والغموض. ترتفع قمته عاليًا نحو السماء، كأنه يلامس الغيوم بأطرافه.
توبقال، حجرٌ ضخمٌ من الأرض، يروي قصصًا قديمة وأساطير. على جباله ينمو الثلج والجليد، وتتراقص النجوم في لياليه الصافية.
أهله يعيشون في صمتٍ وسكينة، يحترمون الطبيعة ويعشقون السلام. توبقال، أنت الجمال والعزّة، وسأبقى أرفعك في قلبي كالنجم الساطع. ✨
It's very nice trip 🏞️🌳🌲
Indeed it is, Thank you
8:48 - I just climbed Toubkal some days ago, and when we started to go down my guide told me that 4 days ago a British woman fell to her death when sliding down on the snow, near the summit. So, that slide at 8:48 looks pretty scary!!!
Great video, thanks!
Sorry to hear that 🙏🧎♂️
Peter I’m due to go up TOUBKAL this summer. How much did you pay for a guide ? And where did you get them? Me and my mates are tempted to just show up and find one whilst we are in morocco/the local area cause we think some of the online stuff seems expensive
@@baileydawson3316just got back from doing Toubkal in December, we booked in advance and payed triple what people did when paying in Morocco
@@baileydawson3316 Sorry, just noticed your comment now. Next time use the @ so I can see it! :)
It was me and my girlfriend only. We just asked around in Imlil, many people were offering the Toubkal climb. We agreed in a total of 1700 MAD for a guide, lunch, dinner, one night in the refuge, breakfast, climb to the summit and back, and an other lunch during the way down. The guide provided crampons for the snow. No mules or horses, no porters, we carried our own backpack - we left our main staff in the hotel in Imlil, so we brought up only what was needed on the mountain. We liked our young guide Mustafa, he helped us a lot on the summit climb, taking care of our steps in the tricky parts. We gave him 200 MAD as a tip when we arrived back.
Did you go? How was it? Could you climb it? My girlfriend skipped the summit, I was lucky enough to see the sunrise at 4000m, it was unbelievable!
votre vidéo est fantastique. congratulations for your best views
Grazie mille! 🙏
Niiiice video and nice eaditing😍😍😍 its beautiful work bro. I like it. I will travel to Toubkal soon 🌷🌷🌷
Thank you and have a good walk up there
@@GuglielmoBiasonyeeeeeah thank you 🌷
This is my town i missed it 😍😍😍
Beautiful town
Great video you have inspired me to go here
Really glad to hear! Absolutely, go and enjoy!
Bravi !... 👏
Damn, the altitude made you confuse east and west. Great video!
Eh eh, quite possible :-)
- welcome to Morocco !
Thanks
@@GuglielmoBiason thanks , nice vidéo,!
Grande! Come al solito
Grazie mille!
Nice video which explains the trip really well. I just did it myself... also with a very painful knee on the route down 🙂
Know the pain! Thanks!
Enjoy your last moment of freedom , very true
Eh eh
This looks amazing...
It does! Thank you!
Thank you for this video
Thanks 🙏 our pleasure!
Congratulations to your friend's marriage, and to your amazing hike. Thank you for making this video. I have been interested in the Atlas Mountains because of a recent finding that the mountain range may be the carcass of a very large dragon. Although it sounds crazy, I reccomend looking at the mountain range from satellite view. With the western side being its mouth, and stretching to the east with it's long tail. Is there anything you guys saw in the rocks that was different or interesting?
Hi Tim - thanks for the kind words. We didn't pay too much attention on the rocks. Too much tired ;)
The area is very known for Dinosaurs bones.
"mountain range may be the carcass of a very large dragon" - dumbass! 😂😂 lmao
Great video 👍👍👍
Thank you 👍
Good luck
✌👍🇲🇦
Well done guys.
Thank you!
it's just amazing
Agree, amazing trek
Morocco could dig rivers from that mont all the way down to the sahara desert... That would be a good source of irrigation for farm lands...
Where do you think the snow goes? There are many rivers that flow out of the Atlas mountains, two of which flow into the desert.
There is more ground water in the moroccan sahara than some areas in the north and also there is plans to plant some parts of the desert .
The snow melt from the south and east side forms in to a natural river flowing south all the way to Agadir on the west coast. Most likly the fresh water forms part of the drinking water for the people of Agadir. That is all I know. Its plainly visible on terrain maps of reasonable quality.
gorgeous vedio
Nice production! Booked for April hopefully we will be able to take it on, may I ask what kit you used to vlog?
Thanks

Hi - got a Canon 6D and go-pro. My friend had a DJI Osmo + a drone who is illegal in Morocco and got confiscated at the airport on the way back
@@GuglielmoBiason awesome buddy thank you for the reply! I use Sony alpha Camera so will no doubt take that for the trip and thanks for the heads up on the drone I’ll probably not take mine I would not like to have it confiscated 😵
Did he manage to get it back eventually?
Thanks 👍🏻
Wonderful adventure guys. Would you like to tell us more informations about the road to the refuge. Do we need a guide to achieve this stage !
The road to the refugee is long but straight forward with water along the way, but you need a guide by regulation. There are checkpoints along the way checking the passports. We used Aztat Treks (atlastrekshop.com) which I really recommend. On their website you can find the various options and detailed itineraries
@@GuglielmoBiason how did you brought a drone to morocco?
@@GuglielmoBiason Hi, thank you for the video, it was great! I had a question about this guide regulation you mention. I've read a lot that you don't need a guide and they only say you do to get your business but its not mandatory. Have you been told different and do you really need a guide?
GOOD JOB ..
Thank you!
visite my experience in toubkal
Beautiful 😍
🙏 🙏 thanks 🙏 🙏
about 4200M Altitude is not easy....congratulation !!
Thanks!
lovely; }}}ko
Awesome video and well done! We are climbing Toubkal in middle of June. What time of year did you do your trip? Thank you!! 😊
Thank you 🙏 very much, really appreciated. We did early May
Brilliant video. Did you arrange the guide before you went there or once there?
Yes, we did, but you can find one easy locally
looking at doing this, this year, did you need micro spikes, excellent vid
No spikes or campons, but was May with little patches of snow
Sorry, crampons
really lovely vedio
Thanks a lot
I will climb Toubkal one day
Will all travel again!
What time of year and month did you ascend up?
It was late May
Can you hire a guide in the village, on the same day ? It seems to be very expenssive when i check online. Some people say it is cheaper if you di it directly on the spot there>?
I think so, just make sure you do the day before the trek, not the same day. In 2019 the prices where more than reasonable online
Amazing video! Congratulations to Angel!
Which month did you go to Morocco and how did you bring a drone to Morocco i want to do that too
Hi, we went in May. Don’t bring the drone, we didn’t check and our got confiscated on the way out!
Beautiful video! I am heading out next week to do the same hike.
One question regarding the drone shots. Did you have any issues getting it into the country and using it? I’ve read they are banned? Any help appreciated 🙏
They are forbidden. We didn’t check before and our was confiscated on the way back
Thank you for reply. Ah no, that’s so frustrating. Did you get it back or manage to get the footage downloaded before heading to the airport? I think I’ll leave mine behind. Thanks for your help.
Great video guys.
How long did it take to climb from the refuge to the summit on the 2nd day ?
If i remember correctly it was about 3-4h
Guglielmo Biason
Thanks for he info.
What were the costs of your lodgings at imli & the refuge. Also what is the cost of the guide and does you stay with you until you return to imli?
Thanks
Imlil is full of guesthouses. Prices around $30 with breakfast. Nowadays you need a guide to climb on Mt Toubkal. They are checkpoints in the valley. The cost is approx. EUR 260 per one person with one guide but it goes down to EUR 150 if you join a group. This usually include the guide, the night in the refugee and all meals. We used a company called Atlas Trek Shop (you can Google them), we were really happy with the service
Very inspiring and nicely made video. Quick question, when (what time of the year) you had done this hike? I and my friend are attempting Mount Toubkal on 28 March and little confused as to what to expect in terms of weather/ snow/ temperatures etc.
Thanks! Hi, it was early May. The day before was raining like hell. On the day it got rainy only in late PM, which was fine. You will likely have more snow on the way, maybe you need crampons. Your guide will be able to tell you. The reality is that the weather could be quite unpredictable and you will have a view only a week in advance on how it looks like. Anyway, pack winter clothes
Hi, many thanks for quickly getting back and your advice. Looking forward to watching more videos from you. Cheers 👍🏼
Awesome video! In which month did you visit?
Than you. It was early May
Sai se ci vuole l'autorizzazione per usare il drone?
Non si puo usare proprio. E’ vietato nel paese e quando te lo trovano te lo confiscano
Nice video, what did you record this with?
It was a Canon and Go Pro
Great !!! Like and sub for you !!!
I'm a tour guide in mountain toubkal. Welcome anytime
Great video, thank you. What time did you arrive back in Marrakesh?
We arrived at around 5pm. You start the fibal climb at 3-4am, than you are back to Imlil after lunch time. Bit of rest and then it’s 1-1.5h car drive
@@GuglielmoBiason thank you mate that’s really helpful. Cheers
What month did you go?
It was May
I am out of shape
Would i still be able to climb toubkal ? is it Veeery challenging??
You need a bit of fit, as it's quite long walk, going up 2000mt over two days. But you don't need anything special. Anyone in good health can do, just take it slowly
@@GuglielmoBiason hhhhh thank you i just got back from it yesterday
It was tiring but not impossible
How did you manage to take a drone ik going next week but been told drones are not allowed.
Well, we didn’t know the rules, so we brought that in and we got that confiscated on our way back. Don’t follow our example
good Job
Thank you

How did you smuggled a drone in Morocco??
We did not know was now allowed. Brought in and then confiscated at exit
Luckily you kept the SD card! ❤
What time of the year was this?
Hi, it was early May
@@GuglielmoBiason Grazie :)
Do you think you could do this without a guide?
Nope, unless they changed the rule, a guide is mandatory. They have couple of checkpoints also were they check the passports
Did u ever see a news of Scandinavian's tourist be headed here?
Unfortunately yes, very sad
Did you ever see news of westerners killing 2 million iraqis? Or westerners dividing africa and killing many people over there? So yeah give us a couple of centuries and we will do the same.now go away and identify yourself as genderfluid or a fruitcake
I’m 16 and have never climbed any mountain, but I plan on climbing the Toubkal when I’m older. Any tips or suggestions?
This is a good way to start as the trek is not too difficult. Just go there with a guide. You will enjoy!
What time of the year you climbed?
It was early May
2:55 .....God
Barber are the humple people in the world
My profile photo is there. I was more then 10 times there.
Can anyone translate the meaning of the name 'Toubkal'. Or parts of the name. There seems as yet no translation on the internet. Thank You.
Bellissimo lo fatto 14 08 19
Partenza alle ore 3:00 arrivo alle ore 18:15
33km e 2200 di dislivello
Molto impegnativo
wind World - tutto in in giorno da Imlil o con pernottamento al rifigio? In ogni caso si, molto impegnativo fisicamente
Si tutto in un giorno ma molto impegnativo

How to get an honest guide for the hike?
Try www.atlastrekshop.com; they have been very honest and reasonable with us (good price and very flexible with some last minute changes). The guide who they assigned us was very good, a proper mountaineer
@@GuglielmoBiason can we book on the spot? Thanks very much for your informative Video.

why cant just go back in a parachute?
Who goes up, have to come down :-)
