Mgoun Circuit
An adventurous trek in rural Morocco taking you into untouched regions of the Atlas Mountains for a real insight into the traditional mountain community culture and some great views on the way! Walking beyond the reach of vehicles, assisted by mules to carry the load, you envelop yourself in the real Morocco.
Beautiful Bougmez valley with impressive gorges and rocks formations. Your trekking culminates with the chance to climb Jebel Mgoun(4068m) for spectacular sweeping views across the Atlas before completing the circle by returning to the Bougmez valley . In complete contrast to the peace of the mountains
