Moroccan Skiing, and Apes on Ice. Jan 26 Written By Andrew G. Three things you never thought you'd see in the same photo: Arabic, snow, and an ape. Some reports online which definitely don't merit a link tout Mischliffen—a ski resort south of Ifrane—as 'the Moroccan Aspen'. To be fair, on our visit last Saturday we did find Mischliffen nestled in a natural alpine wonderland, but one of considerably less dramatic heights than its Rocky Mountain counterpart. Mischliffen's two ski trails—one modest and the other more so—empty into a large bowl at the hill's base, where hundreds of Moroccan kids and teens spent the day sledding on wooden fruit crates nailed to sawed-off ski halves. Often several of them would join together in a train at the bowl's lip and slide downward, screaming hysterically, until their formation suddenly dissolved into a mass of tumbling bodies, with sleds skittering away in every direction. No, these are not the 'apes on ice'—that comes later. The enterprising locals who rented out makeshift sleds from the parking lot also offered outdated ski equipment and a few snowboards. Jacqueline and I, and many of our friends who we joined on this North African skiing adventure, managed to fit into some clunky, s-era ski boots, strap on the similarly outdated straight-edged skis and hit the slopes all two of them. A few Moroccans did join us on the ski trails, though unlike the sledders, these were no common folk. They reinforced the class distinction by wearing their finest European ski gear and pausing at the top of the hill for an excessive pre-game stretch session before their first run. This on a slope no more than m long. Our crowd had no such patience or pretensions, and quickly set about barreling down the hill at top speed. Though the mountain has no artificial snowblowers, conditions weren't bad, thanks to this winter's plentiful snows. That's right, no lift tickets at Mischliffen—it's pay-as-you-go. The lift on the longer, more challenging trail wasn't running today, we were told. So, seven of us rode the bunny slope's lift once more, and then set out into the forest, lugging our skis further up the snowy mountainside toward the higher trail's summit. Nearly two hours—and several defections—later, I and two others reached the top. Heady with victory, we strapped in and pointed our skis downhill, realizing only too late that the mountainside, whose conditions had been ideal earlier in the day, was now covered in a mash of sun-warmed slush. En route, we got more than my hoped-for glimpse of the region's elusive Barbary Apes. At a crossroads in the forest, a few cars were pulled over, and their Moroccan occupants kneeling along the roadside with breads in hand, trying to coax a troupe of the apes closer. Something about those circumstances didn't seem right, but the opportunity to see the normally shy creatures up close was exciting. Andrew G.

There’s Pretty Good Skiing/Snowboarding in Morocco – Yes, Morocco

Read on…. The runs usually remain uncrowded and they are not pisted, which is great after a fresh snowfall when there are light, dry powder conditions. There are a handful of hotels in town; a ski school with classes for beginners to more advanced; and a few rental shops for both ski equipment and clothing. Make sure you rent from the official shops, rather than the unofficial street vendors you may see on the way up to the start of the ski area, and avoid being pressurised into renting from an ancient assortment of skis with boots already in the bindings laid out in the snow. You can stay out here and shuttle over to the mountain, or browse one of the online booking engines for one of the more modestly priced accommodations in the incongruously Alpine-style town which also boasts an interesting souk where you can browse for traditional Berber crafts from the Atlas Mountains; please note, by the way: however fine a piece of headgear, a fez is no substitute for a ski helmet! You can also opt for the luxury of heli-skiing. Heliski Marrakech is the only such operator in Africa, offering descents of more than 2, m 8, ft. Based a half hour from Marrakesh in the Ourika Valley , it requires participants to be physically fit and to have notched up plenty of off-piste experience, with the ability to navigate all types of snow — whether powder, breakable crust, spring snow, or hard pack — and on any gradient of terrain.
