Charity ascent of Jbel Toubkal 2009
Thought you’d never climb to the top of Toubkal, North Africa’s highest peak? Well, now’s your chance.
Seriously, whilst not a ‘doddle’, the ascent of Toubkal is achievable by people who are reasonably fit and determined. Many have reached the summit of Toubkal who never thought they would!
So, do something you always wanted to do, or something you never thought you would be able to do.
The Itinerary:
Saturday 30th May 2009
Meet at 10.00 to 10.30 hours at the Kasbah du Toubkal, Imlil for tea and coffee before setting off at 11.30 hours for the Neltner Refuge Hut (3200 metres).
Sunday 31st May 2009
Early start to the summit of Toubkal (4165 metres) and then return to Imlil between 16.00 and 18.00 hours
The cost
The cost for this trip fully inclusive of all mule support, guides, food and overnight accommodation is €250 (euros) per person of which a minimum of €150 (euros) will go to Education for All. The party is limited to 20 people which will raise €3000 (euros) and hence cover the costs for 3 girls for a year. Participants on past events have also managed to sponsor themselves and raise even more funds. We have set up a justgiving page for this (link to follow) to allow donations from your friends and colleagues. Seriously, getting sponsorship is an amazing way to motivate you to the summit. If you prefer, you can always make your own donations page in favour of Education for All Morocco Limited.
