Altitude without the expedition

Ifrane is often called the Switzerland of Morocco, with sloped roofs, parks and the Al Akhawayn University campus. Its altitude of around 1,665 m and its forest trails make it a natural base for distance running and endurance work.

The town is about an hour by road from Fès, which has international flights. Fès itself, with one of the world's largest medinas, makes a good cultural day out.

Winter brings snow and freezing nights, so we run Ifrane camps from late spring to early autumn and move winter groups to Agadir or Marrakech.
