I have now had my fourth - and for now last - trip this year confirmed. A small trip to Morocco in October for a week, trek in the Atlas mountains and climbing Mt. Toubkal, tallest point in Northern Africa. While there is a summit as our goal it is a simpel trek; no climbing, no snow, no ice. Quite a relaxing walk with hopefully some great views.
