Morocco Trek and Sights - Trip # 1836 Friday – Sunday March 16 – April 1, 2018 Morocco remains exotic and unknown to most Americans yet is a place of striking beauty and culture with winding alleys, rich beaches, flavorful cuisine, and spectacular scenery and hiking. As an exciting hiking destination with mild, dry weather in March, we offer twelve people the opportunity to experience firsthand some of Morocco’s most spectacular scenery on this 17-day trip. Our hiking trek across the Anti-Atlas Mountains covers 90 miles in eight days. Mules carry our gear, and muleteers set up our tents and cook the food, while we carry just our daypacks. We trek through rocky passes and canyons with wide-open expansive views, fantastic rock formations, remote Berber villages, friendly locals, black starlit nights and authentic Moroccan food. The estimated cost for the trip is $1,575 plus airfare (est. $700- $1,000) based on quotes at the time of the approval end of August 2017. People wishing to participate in this trip must have previous hiking experience, at the intermediate level. This trip is the second section of Blauner/Chambers Morocco Trek and Sights #1818. For more information contact one of the Leaders: Marianne Page (603) 432- 9249, [email protected] or Lisa Graves, [email protected].
