Mulhacen and Toubkal await you!

A chance to ascend Mulhacen (3482m) and Mt Toubkal (4167m), the highest peaks in both mainland Spain and Morocco in one amazing (but intensive) weeks trekking or mountaineering.

For those of you whose holiday time is precious then we have an itinerary that will allow you to climb these peaks within a week. Options exist for you to extend your stay either in Spain's Sierra Nevada near Granada or Morocco's deserts, coasts and cities.

Spanish Highs will run the Spanish part of this week and then we shall pass you onto our professional local tour and mountain guides in Morocco. You are assured a warm welcome to this fascinating country.

N.B Combining these two peaks would make a superb Charity Challenge that is rarely done.
