Mount Toubkal (Jebel Toubkal) is the highest peak in North Africa at 4,167m (13,671 ft), located in Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains within Toubkal National Park. The summit trek is a popular, non-technical hike offering stunning Berber village scenery, rugged trails, and panoramic views from the top.
