7:45 AM Finish hike - hard end time.
Cost: 200 Dh Per Person
Long Description:
The only safe window for hiking in the summer months is pre sunrise until shortly after, even then, depending on the humidity levels. Usually, the pre sunrise timings are comfortable enough for most people to handle well, but only in this very small window.
The Experience:
Fox Trail is one of our favorite beginner hikes, which makes it a perfect pre season introduction. Our goal is to walk slowly without breathing hard and without pushing just to get used to the climate. Even though the morning temps are comfortable, after months exercising or staying indoors, your body will need to adjust.
