Introduction for the Morocco expedition

Situated at the top of North-West Africa, Morocco has long been associated as a crossroads between Africa, Europe and the Middle East. Morocco’s mountain regions provide the perfect location for trekking as you can follow all sorts of mountain passes which weave their way through Berber villages, among fields of flowers and local attractions. Morocco is also home to some of the world’s most stunning gorges and desert environments, which you can trek through whilst taking in the breathtaking scenery.

The Moroccan culture is a unique blend of both European and Arabic influences that date from ancient times to the present day. The official language is Moroccan Arabic, but you will hear French spoken in the cities and many of the rural villages, except in the northern regions where Spanish is more predominant. You will also hear many Berber languages and English being spoken across the country.

Morocco World Challenge expedition Our Challengers loved…
Trekking through the Atlas Mountains and taking in the gorgeous views from Mount Toubkal. Teams that went camel trekking loved the opportunity to spend the night out under the stars of the Sahara desert.

When back in Marrakech the challengers immersed themselves in the hustle and bustle of Moroccan souks.
