Hi. We're going to Morocco in the spring, to visit my son and do a couple oft treks. We don't want to be in very busy areas - and I've trekked around Toubkal, M'goun, Sirwa and Sahro.
I recall an article in TGO maybe 10 years ago, in which Hamish opens up about a wonderful area he'd previously kept quiet about. He said he was doing this because the locals needed a little tourism to survive.
I've spoken to Hamish and he can't recall the article, but thinks it could have been about the Tichka Plateau. I bought his book, but it is more anecdotal, with less advice on, say, a 7 - 10 day trek.
TGO's editor said he'd try to find it, but he's gone quiet - away, perhaps? TGO's back issue dept can't help, unless one has the specific date.
So I wonder if anyone might recall the article, even have a copy?
If anyone has suggestions for a good trek, not too strenuous, that would be much appreciated. We thought, this time, we might use a guide and muleteer, to help the local economy?
Many thanks,
Rob
