The Todra Gorge
A truly amazing climbing week with lots of character! (Time for a major adventure!)
It's always exciting traveling to new destinations, climbing fresh rock, visiting different cultures and Morocco gives you all this and more. It is a place largely missed by the British and only recently receiving a little more interest. For those of you with a thirst for adventure, this destination is a must.
The Todra Gorge is where we're heading. You arrive to a beautiful green oasis and tall palm trees standing at the mouth of this stunning mountain cleft of 300 meter brown limestone walls. The gorge delivers an offering of high quality single and multi-pitch sport climbs of all grades with huge development potential.
Accommadtion
The accommodation here is set in charming Moroccan hotels on a bed and breakfast basis. You will spend a two night stopover in Marrakech before your transfer to the mountains the following morning. Your accommodation is set in the heart of the city and offers so much culture and excitement to enjoy, whether its a snake charmer or craft stall your looking for, Marrakech is sure to meet your expectations.
