Mint Tea, Mule Trails, and Mountain Magic: Discovering Morocco’s Hidden Paradise

Just a few hours from London, Morocco offers a journey through time, starting in vibrant Marrakech and culminating in the majestic Atlas Mountains. After soaking in the city’s dazzling souks, serene riads, and spiritual gardens, visitors can head south to the Berber village of Imlil. From there, tourists can access the Kasbah du Toubkal, a mountaintop haven powered by mule and tradition. From its ancient towers and mountain views to spiritual stillness and community resilience following the 2023 earthquake, the experience is humbling. Guided treks reveal pine forests, Berber hospitality, and a gourmet feast delivered by a mule atop a high plateau. As the stars rise over the summit of Toubkal, Morocco’s highest peak, the sense of awe deepens. Far from modern chaos, this under-visited region feels like another world—one well worth the climb.
