Memorise the Mountains of Morocco
Morocco’s Mountains are a short list. This guide locks the order into memory with one phrase and a map step for each.
This guide uses visual emoji anchors and a mnemonic phrase to lock all 4 into your memory. By the end, you’ll know every one.
Time-box it. Give yourself 5 focused minutes - no phone, no other tabs. That’s all this takes. Rushing memorisation never sticks; a short attentive session beats 20 distracted minutes.
The Mnemonic
One sentence to remember the order - each word starts with the same letter as each mountain:
Tall Magic All Always
Say it once. Now let’s meet each mountain and place them on the map.
Why this works: the mnemonic turns a list of 4 arbitrary names into a single sentence your brain already treats as one chunk. You’re not memorising 4 things - you’re memorising one short phrase with 4 hooks hanging off it. That’s how working memory gets leveraged into long-term recall.
The order matters. Peak elevations are essentially fixed on human timescales · Morocco’s order has been stable for as long as it has been measured.
1. Toubkal
“Tall…” - Tall starts with T, just like Toubkal.
2. M’Goun
”…Tall Magic…” - M for M’Goun.
3. Angour
”…Magic All…” - A for Angour.
4. Anghomar
”…All Always…” - A for Anghomar.
The Complete Map
Close your eyes first. Before looking at the map below, try saying the mnemonic out loud and picturing each mountain’s position. Attempted recall - even if you get half wrong - cements memory far better than passive re-reading.
Peaks rarely stand alone. Most of Morocco’s highest summits belong to a single range or a small number of ranges · group them by range and walk the ridge in your head, summit by summit. Start with Toubkal, M’Goun, Angour, Anghomar and chain the remaining peaks by elevation drop.

Now Test Yourself
Active recall beats re-reading. You’ll remember the list ten times better by trying to reproduce it from memory than by reading it again. Close this tab, say the mnemonic, then come back and check.
Think you’ve got it? The interactive game tests you step by step - place each mountain on the map in the right order.
Play Morocco Mountains →Two modes: Locations (tap the right spot) and Names (pick the right name).
Come back tomorrow. Test yourself again 24 hours from now - that single follow-up session is what moves the list from “I learned it” to “I know it”. Spaced repetition works on mountain lists the same as everything else.
Mind the order. Mixing up the ranks of Morocco’s top mountains is the most common mistake · rehearse the mnemonic backwards once, then forwards, to lock the sequence both directions.
