this time of year, the mountainous region of Imlil, nestled in the province of Al Haouz, attracts an endless stream of national and international tourists in search of adventure and wonder at nature. Le360 also went there to meet mountain lovers and the region’s splendid scenery. In Imlil, for tourists, it is in a majestic setting that the flagship attraction of the region unfolds: the ascent of the summit of Toubkal, rising to an altitude of 4,167 meters, making it the second highest peak in Africa after Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. This quest for altitude revives the local economy, mainly fueled by the tourism sector. In a statement for Le360, Mustapha Aït M’barek, owner of a cooperative specializing in the sale of artisanal products, highlighted the tourist craze for the Imlil region, driven by its breathtaking landscapes and imposing mountains, offering ideal hiking and climbing terrain all year round.
