Summit Day! The day will commence with another early breakfast for our challenging, yet rewarding summit day. We will begin our climb just as the sun starts to rise, wearing head torches and warm layers. We will follow a steep rocky path, zig-zagging our way up, as we ascend 1000 metres over a tough 7 hour trek. As we climb in altitude, the vegetation becomes increasingly sparse, and we may find some remaining snow underfoot. Around midday, after a strenuous climb, we can celebrate as we reach the top of the highest peak in North Africa. The effort is rewarded with superb views, which on a clear day can span the entire Atlas Mountain range. The feeling of pride for making it here will be immense! After a rest break, where we will have the opportunity to soak up the views and take
some photos, we will subsequently begin our descent back down the same route. This is also quite tough, as the trail is steep and rocky. We will catch a glimpse of camp from a distance as we approach and will be presented with a well-earned late lunch when we arrive. We will then have the opportunity to enjoy some free time to rest. As evening approaches, we will have a group dinner in the camp before getting some much-needed sleep.
