Certified Climbing Guides

There aren’t many certified guides in Morocco, so having one who knows the area like the back of his hand is a real plus, and a guarantee that your experience will be unique and that you’ll finish the week well-prepared to take on new climbing projects and trips. Our guides knows the sectors of the Gorge extremely well and will adapt to the group’s pace and level to ensure you get the most out of the experience.

Easy access and facilities

Easy access and facilities

We’ll be staying right at the entrance of the canyon, where you can practically walk out of the hotel with your harness already on. One of the great things about Todra is that after our climbing sessions, we can relax with a tea and enjoy a meal in any of the garden restaurants along the gorge. Everything is super convenient.

We’ll enjoy the local food, the lively souks, the sounds, smells and energy that make this corner of Morocco so unique.

Discover the magic of climbing in the Atlas

Todra: the birthplace of climbing in North Africa

Known as Morocco’s Mecca of climbing, Todra Gorge has attracted climbers from around the world, especially since its rise to fame in the 1980s. The region's red limestone provides the perfect conditions for rock climbing, and its sunny, dry climate makes it an ideal year-round destination. The gorge's striking beauty, with its towering cliffs and narrow passageways, also makes it a fantastic place for photography and outdoor exploration.

Reviews

Xavi was great and everything on our trip went smoothly! Xavi’s knowledge of the area made it so easy to find the best climbs for all skill levels and the flexible planning ensured everyone got what they wanted out of the trip. We even managed to keep us busy on rainy days. The yoga everyday was excellent and the instructor tailored the classes to meet our needs. Overall it was a wonderful experience!

Kate - Trustpilot

KooKoo Climb organised a fantastic weekend in Margalef, two days in the middle of nature and climbing in spectacular places. They organised the activities and accommodation perfectly, giving us a unique and unforgettable experience! I will definitely participate in more of their trips. Thanks Guys!

Alice Catto - Google

This was my first time climbing and we did two days in Margalef with Xavi guiding us. I learnt a lot in these two days and Xavi helped to push me through my fear and really increase my confidence. He was always there to support but he was very good at helping you to feel you could trust yourself and you knew what you were doing. A really amazing instructor, I can't wait for the next trip!

In autumn and spring, the weather in Todra Gorge is generally excellent for climbing — dry, sunny, and mild, making both seasons some of the best times to visit.


During autumn (September to November), temperatures gradually cool down. September is still quite warm, with daytime highs between 28–34°C (82–93°F) and nights around 15–20°C (59–68°F). October offers ideal climbing conditions, with daytime temperatures around 22–28°C (72–82°F) and cooler nights between 10–15°C (50–59°F). By November, days are still pleasant (18–24°C / 64–75°F), but mornings and evenings can get chilly, with lows dropping to around 5–10°C (41–50°F).


In spring (March to May), conditions are very similar but warming up rather than cooling down. March brings fresh mornings and evenings, with daytime highs around 18–24°C (64–75°F) and lows between 6–10°C (43–50°F). April is one of the best months for climbing, with comfortably warm days (22–28°C / 72–82°F) and mild nights. By May, it starts to get hotter again — daytime highs often reach 28–34°C (82–93°F), and nights stay around 15–20°C (59–68°F), making shaded climbing sectors more appealing.


Rain is rare in both seasons, though occasional showers can happen in March or November. The air is typically dry, and even when temperatures rise, the low humidity helps keep conditions comfortable. Mornings and evenings can be quite cool, so it’s a good idea to bring layers — light clothing for the day and a warmer jacket for early mornings or after sunset.
