Winter Walks & Trip Reviews
- Winter Toubkal Trek (4 days)
An enjoyable four day adventure treking to and around Mt Toubkal. Communication was lacking at times, although we stayed flexible and everything worked out fine. The pick up was on time and very comfortable, with a lovely breakfast provided before our walk start at Imlil and amazing lunch on return four days later. All guides were very friendly and experienced in the local area and terrain. English was not widely spoken and therefore don't expect a detailed cultural commentary but we always felt safe and with a little french we got by. Food to and from the refuge was good however breakfast and lunch at the refuge was basic and a bit small for the significant energy needed for the trek - extra chocolate bars definitely required! The refugee was warm with large fires and the communal dorms were very comfortable. Be aware the toilets and showers were very basic, no toilet paper or hot water. Pay attention to the kit list, prepare for basic accommodation and you'll have an amazing experience. Thank you to Ibrahim our guide, we couldn't have had a friendlier or more genuine man. Clearly fondly known to all in the Toubkal area and made our trek authentic, safe and as relaxing as climbing a 4000m mountain can be!
- Peaks & Lakes of the Pirin and Rila Mountains
My partner and I did the peaks and lakes of the Pirin and Rila mountains with Traventuria. It was an incredible experience which was well organised by the company. From the moment I showed interest, Traventuria made every effort possible to help out and book the tour that was right for us. We scored Alex Serafimov as our guide! he was excellent, had incredible local knowledge and was overall a cool guy! The food was great, the transfers seamless and the mountains remarkable! would definitely recommend using Traventuria and asking for Alex!! :-)
- Summits and lakes of the Rila and Pirin Mountains (self-guided walking tour; all ground transfers included)
A most enjoyable holiday! We took the suggested extension to include also Maliovitsa peak in Rila, and made the tour 9 days. It was definitely worth it.
