TREK MOROCCO
INTERESTED IN FINDING OUT MORE?
In 2013 Francis House organised its first trek which raised over £39,000.00 in
sponsorship.
Fill in the form below to request an Information Pack about tailor made trekking
in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco.
“This has been the first challenge that I have been involved in and it
has been superb. The guides were excellent, friendly and professional
and we were given great food at the campsites.”
The pack includes a lot more detail and should answer all your further questions.
Now we are able to announce that TREK 2 is to take place in October 2015.
This will be a breath taking journey through the High Atlas mountain passes of
Morocco ending in the colorful bazaars of Marrakech. Stunning panoramas of
deep gorges and fertile valleys provide the backdrop to this unmissable trek.
