From September 2026, we have expanded our walking grade scale from 6 to 10 points. While the holidays themselves have not changed (the routes, daily distances and ascent levels remain the same), our newly expanded 1-10 scale offers greater distinction between holidays and clearer grade descriptions, so you can choose a holiday that best suits you.
Moderate walking grade 5
Some walking experience needed. Full day walks which may include some short but steep ascents and descents throughout the day, and varied terrain. Regular stops. Typically, 8-9 miles (13-15km) with around 1,300ft (400m) of ascent.All our carefully-curated itineraries are designed by our experts. While we make every effort to adhere to the described itinerary, we may take alternative routes or adapt the running order for weather and/or operational reasons.

Transfer to Marrakech Airport for your flight home.
Book your holiday ‘with flights’ and you can choose to depart from a range of UK airports* to your destination. For latest flight times and prices please call us on 0203-974-8865 or email reservations@hfholidays.co.uk
If you choose to book your flights with us, we automatically include return transfers between the destination airport and hotel.
If you prefer to book the holiday without flights and make your own travel arrangements you will still be able to make use of the return group transfers between the airport and hotel, which are included in the cost of your holiday. You must contact us on +44 (0)20 3974 8865 or email reservations@hfholidays.co.uk at least 8 weeks before your holiday start date to provide your flight details if you wish to join the transfers. If you do not contact us, we will assume you are making independent travel arrangements.
If you are arriving ahead of the group, and are meeting them at the first hotel, please leave a message at the hotel reception for the HF Holidays’ leader or local leader, detailing your room number, and a mobile telephone number if possible. The leader will contact you once the group arrives. If you are arriving after the group, a message will be left for you at the hotel reception, welcoming you and giving details of the time and place to meet the group.
Morocco’s climate varies from warm/hot in the cities to cooler/cold in the Atlas Mountains. Our tours run in spring and autumn with temperatures around the low to mid 20s Celsius with light rainfall from time to time. Like other places in the world
highs and lows in temperature are changing so it is advisable to pack layers so you can adapt to the changes.
Essentials
Recommended
Optional extras
Please contact us as far in advance as possible if you have any specific dietary requirements and we will do our best to meet your needs.
If you require a specific meal on the flight, please let us know as soon as possible, and no later than 96 hours before travel.
This information is for those travelling with a full ‘British Citizen’ passport; for all other nationalities or passport holders, please check with your local consulate for advice.
Your passport should be valid for the proposed duration of your stay; no additional period of validity beyond this is required but it’s recommended to have at least 6 months additional validity beyond your date of entry.
British nationals don’t need a visa to enter Morocco for tourism for up to 3 months. Make sure your passport is stamped on arrival – some tourists have experienced difficulty when leaving because they don’t have an entry stamp.
Travel insurance is a condition of booking. Therefore, if you have not already arranged insurance, it is imperative that you do so before you travel.
For more information about healthcare and its costs, please visit: https://www.nhs.uk/using-the-nhs/healthcare-abroad/
Once you have made your booking, you will receive a pre-holiday questionnaire where we ask for details of next of kin, and insurance details. You must complete and return this to us- we need to have this from you at least 10 weeks before travel. Please also inform us of any medical situation which may affect your enjoyment of the holiday. This is important because our leaders have to consider both group and individual safety at all times.
Whilst out with the group, we respectfully request that you:
Each leader carries a first aid kit but is not allowed to supply any medication including aspirin, paracetamol, antihistamines, and antiseptic cream. You may wish to bring these items with you in your own kit.
In the unlikely event that your leader is incapacitated, please use any emergency kit in their rucksack and call emergency services on 19 or 177 (police, either city or suburban) or 15 (ambulance). Please then call our emergency number (sent in your final dispatch) and let us know there is a problem.
Morocco is a Muslim country. Whilst many places we visit are generally accepting of Western attire (you will see Moroccans wearing all styles!), traditional views are still held in smaller villages and in the medinas of the cities.
On your trip we advise you to dress modestly and respectfully. Both men and women should aim to cover their shoulders and knees, especially if visiting religious sites or rural areas. Opt for loose-fitting and conservative clothing to show respect for local customs and traditions.
Ticks are tiny creatures that live in vegetation and can attach themselves to passing animals or walkers and
may carry a risk of Lyme Disease. Please refer to NHS advice and guidelines for information prior to your
holiday.
We see it as our responsibility to minimise our emissions, not just for this year but every year to come. Our work with sustainability experts, ecollective, has enabled us to measure our carbon footprint and create a strategy to reduce the carbon intensity of our product by 5% each year. Our ambition is to be net zero by 2040 – earlier if we can.
