The 3 Peaks Challenge in Morocco with HITW

A brilliant adventure from start to finish. The tour was well organised, and delivered spectacular experiences. The group were friendly, chatty and inclusive, the landscapes were picturesque. Our tour guides were knowledgable and experienced with the trek making for a safe yet adventurous opportunity for all. Great value for money! Overall a highly recommended adventure.

What an amazing trek with amazing people. Both the group and the guides made the tough days enjoyable. The guides kept us safe and well informed as well as making us laugh for three days straight. Absolutely loved it!

Very nice and chalenging trip. nice local team!

Overall, this was a fantastic and rewarding experience. The 3 Peaks Challenge in Morocco delivered exactly what it promised in terms of adventure: breathtaking views, a real physical challenge, and the satisfaction of reaching some amazing summits.

A special shout out to our guide Jawad (renamed Jo by me 😆)—he was an absolute legend. Calm, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout, he really made us feel safe and motivated on the mountain. Our group was small, just my friend and I plus one other person, which made for a really personal and enjoyable experience.

That said, there were a few things that could be improved: • Pre-trip communication: The WhatsApp group set up ahead of the trip wasn’t monitored or responded to, which left me uneasy.

• Refuge experience: After hiking around 4 hours to the refuge, we arrived to find there was no electricity due to maintenance works. Power came on briefly during dinner at 6:30 pm, but was off again by morning, making it difficult to get ready in the dark for an early hike. There was also no hot water our entire stay and after the long stays of trekking, climbing and dust, a warm shower would have been welcome. • Accommodation clarity: One point that we feel should be clearly stated in the trip details is that the refuge dorms are not only shared, but mixed-gender. While this may be fine for many, it’s something some travellers might want to know in advance to be fully comfortable.

Despite these few glitches, this was a brilliant adventure—challenging, memorable, and filled with stunning landscapes. With a few improvements to communication and clearer accommodation info, the overall experience would be even better. We absolutely would recommend it for those up for the challenge!

Everything about this trip was fantastic. Airport transfers seamless, staff at the (beautiful) Riad helpful and friendly, the food was amazing throughout. The refuge was basic but good enough for what you need it for. The hikes were perfectly planned and absolutely brilliant. But our guides are what made it so special … attentive, helpful, informative, encouraging, organised, and so fun. The best trip :hands_heart|type_3:

Had a fantastic time, met some great people and had an experience that I will be telling my grand children about in years to come. Organisation was faultless as was (Mustafa) our guide. Food was also good and well catered for vegetarians.

From start to finish the entire adventure was incredible. Everything was well set out. Our guide was very helpful and made the entire trip great! I could not recommend this challenge enough!

This was a real adventure from start to finish, with everything organised brilliantly. The riad, transport, guides, food- all perfect. The trekking itself was challenging but rewarding with the awesome views. Loved this trip so much.

I found this harder than Kilimanjaro, especially day two but far more enjoyable. The guides are amazing. Really knowledgeable - they take care of you and they couldn’t do more for you. The food is amazing from the Riad. The food provided on the mountain was better than the food I had in Marrakesh, which was also excellent. I took altitude sickness tablets and didn’t feel any adverse effects. The people in our group who didn’t take them also manage to climb. The second day was the toughest day as a scramble is involved but it’s all quite manageable. I’m 60 years old and found it not too physically challenging but I walk a lot every day. Views are stunning. Highly recommended!

Superb little holiday/adventure with so much packed into such a short time. Everything went to plan - met at the airport, caught up with the others in the group for Weds dinner coordinated via Whatsap. Steady, sensible pace trekking up to the mountain refuge to allow us to acclimatise. The accommodation at the refuge was somewhat cosy but we all knew this would be the case but we were well looked after there and the food was pretty decent. The two peaks on Friday were great fun with a bit of scrambling heading to Ras which everyone in the group ably dealt with and the second summit was easily reached from there. We also apparently took longer than expected as we had too many stops for photos! The one tricky thing was that it was easy to slide on the little stones and about an hour before the end I slipped, fell over and tweaked my left quad which remained painful thereafter. However, one of the guides, Mustafa I think noted my discomfort and kindly gave me his poles (as a fell runner I thought I could manage without) which he let me keep for the rest of the trip and these helped notably on the downhills taking the pressure off the sore quad. Saturday's ascent of Toubkal was aided by the poles and some paracetamol & Ibuprofen and was done at a nice steady pace which seemed to suit the whole group and we got to the summit in good time before 8am - less opportunities for photos going up as we started in the dark but we made up for this with plenty of pics at the summit and with the Whatsapp group could pick and choose from a variety of sources with some very accomplished photographers within the group. Having spent so much time together I got to know everyone in the group and feel like we have all become friends and may even try and book another trip with MBA with members of this group.

I recently completed The 3 Peaks Challenge in Morocco with Much Better Adventures, and it was truly unforgettable. The trek through the Atlas Mountains was both challenging and rewarding, offering stunning views at every turn.

What made this trip even more special was our guide. His knowledge, expertise, and positive attitude kept the group motivated throughout. He knew how to balance pushing us to our limits while ensuring we were safe and comfortable, making the whole experience enjoyable.

The logistics were seamless—comfortable accommodations, delicious food, and a great team. If you're up for a challenge and want to experience the beauty of Morocco, I highly recommend this adventure!

The trip was absolutely great! The weather was perfect, the food delicious, and the hike was a great challenge. The guides were brilliant! I met some really nice people as well. I'd certainly do it again.

My fiance and I embarked on this trip in June 2025 and loved every minute of it. Our guide, Said, was absolutely phenomenal. He supported and encouraged us every step of the way. Can't thank Said enough for everything he did for us. He made the adventure run so smoothly. Will definitely book with MBA again soon

Our guides were incredibly experienced and fun too. This is an achievable adventure for anyone relatively fit- you don't need to be superman. The Riad was beautiful but be prepared for the overnights in the mountain refuge, we had a real laugh and the food was second to non but it is a group dorms and very basic (does have warm shower and toilet). It didn't affect the trip for the group and everyone made Toubkal summit as a team.

Great experience and can't wait to book my 4th trip with MBA!

What am amazing trip this was!

Great hiking, great people and an all round great experience for those into hiking, meeting new people and feeling the sense of achievement.

Just book it!

Great guides, great food, great views, great trip

I’ve had the best experience ever, the description of the trek was spot on, Aztak Trek are so helpful, informative, and go above and beyond to deliver wonderful trips. You are in professional hands and the guides take well care of you. My whole trip went so well without any flaws. The trekking, views and terrain leave a lasting memory. I am looking forward to my next adventure.

Fantastic trip, friendly helpful guides, accommodation comfortable, food amazing, highly recommend

Wow, what an experience the 3 peak challenge was. I just can’t praise the guides enough for looking after us on an awesome challenge and for engaging in the group craic, 3 pure legends in their own right!! What a fantastic group of people to have done the hike with too. Everyone got involved and that just made it. The scramble up Mt Ouanoukrim was a bit hairy for novices but fair play to the hides they got us up and down in one piece. The riad in Marrakesh was just perfect. Located in the middle of the old town we just had to step outside the door for the authentic experience. The mountain refuge during the hike, well what can you say, it was a roof over our head and plenty warm. I’d definitely recommend this trip and MBA, everything was so well organised and the people where pure gold.

Hi folks Just wanted to say a huge thanks for an amazing experience. I felt fully supported from start to finish and enjoyed the 3 peaks challenge, the group togetherness and the fantastic team you have in Morocco Many thanks Mark

Definitely a challenge, but worth every blister! Well organised from the beginning to the end, amazing guides who made sure it was safe, and couldn't do more to look after us, highly recommended!

Excellent from start to finish. The team we went with were awesome!! Food excellent. A massive thank you to the guides, who worked so hard and were always there to help and support, especially Abdulilahmeskouk. You were amazing!! Thank you.

An amazing trip, with a fantaatic group! The guides were great; very friendly, helpful, attentive and took really good care of the group. The food was terrific and a special mention for the amazing cook at the mountain hut. Summit of Mt Toubkal was great and the additional mountains were a real treat.

I’ve just completed the 3 Peaks Challenge in Morocco with Much Better Adventures, and I genuinely can’t recommend it enough. This trip far exceeded my expectations – it’s not just about ticking off Toubkal; the inclusion of the two other peaks, the varied and remote routes, and the incredible scramble make this a truly epic adventure from start to finish.

The whole experience was incredibly well-organised. The support team and guides were phenomenal – professional, passionate, and relentlessly dedicated to our safety and enjoyment. They kept spirits high no matter the conditions and made everyone feel supported throughout. Their knowledge of the mountains and local culture added so much depth to the journey.

There was plenty of food at every stage, and the logistics – from mountain huts to summit pushes – ran seamlessly. What really stood out for me was the camaraderie within the group and how well the guides brought everyone together to make this feel like a shared adventure rather than just a challenge.

If you’re looking for something more than just a one-day summit, this is the trip to book. It’s tough, it’s rewarding, and it’s absolutely unforgettable. Thank you to the whole team – I’ll be reliving this experience for a long time to come!

Had a great experience doing this challenge. Both guides, Muhammed and Said were great the whole time and the food was very good throughout. I actually enjoyed climbing the other 2 peaks more than Toubkal so they are well worth adding on. Marrakech is also a great city to visit. Overall a great trip, one I enjoyed so much I am looking to come back to climb Toubkal in winter.

Recommend this trip to anyone wanting to bag a few 4000m mountains, and for anyone who enjoys a scramble and more technical routes the 3 peaks is a must over Toubkal alone. Organisation was great throughout and the guides were excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great crew + (ascend + descend + miles ) / (time + MAD)

.

Climbing the peaks is an incredible experience - would recommend to anyone! The mountain refuge is a bit basic and crowded, which makes it tricky to recover, but overall a brilliant trip

We had an unforgettable time in Morocco last weekend taking on the Three Peaks Challenge with Much Better Adventures. Seven of us made the journey, and we were incredibly lucky to be guided by three outstanding professionals—experienced, friendly, and always ready with a smile or a joke. Their knowledge of the mountains and attention to our safety meant we could focus on enjoying the experience. We always felt supported, encouraged, and in safe hands. The camaraderie with the guides made the adventure even more special—lots of laughs, great conversations, and memories we’ll be talking about for a long time. A truly amazing adventure from start to finish.
