Mount Kilimanjaro - An early wake-up call, breakfast, and a gradual climb to 3,500 meters; at this point, climbers can enjoy a breathtaking view of Shira Plateau and Kibo Volcano for the first time. The transition from Mti Mkubwa Camp to the second high-altitude Shira 1 Camp (3,505m) is generally easy and takes about 5-6 hours. This allows for a gradual start to the acclimatization process, which is crucial for a successful trek.

Upon arrival at the camp, lunch will be served, and after a 2-hour break, everyone will participate in an acclimatization hike to Lava Tower Camp, offering an elevation gain of 300 meters.

This section of the route includes many climbs and descents, ending with a camp at over 15,000 feet. It may be challenging, and some discomfort may be felt, but to acclimatize successfully to the altitude, spending at least 1-2 hours here is necessary, so lunch will be served here. Then, descend to Barranco Camp (3,960 m). Here, the famous Barranco Wall can be seen, impressive for its enormous size and steepness! Climbers will ascend it the next day, but there is no need to worry: there is a very easy hiking trail.

Kilimanjaro Climbing Tour: Barranco Camp to Karanga Camp

Mount Kilimanjaro - An early start, breakfast, and the climb of the Barranco Wall begin (it is recommended to leave the camp as soon as possible to avoid the crowd of other groups). Climbing the canyon wall is not difficult and takes only an hour. After the climb, there is time to rest and take photos in front of the Kibo volcano. Then, a more challenging hike to Karanga Camp begins, with many ups and downs along the way, but there is no need to worry: the guides are experts in setting an optimal pace for the group. Upon arrival at the camp, a hot lunch will be offered. After a few hours, an acclimatization hike to Barafu Camp with an elevation gain of 200m is required, followed by a return to the camp.

Kilimanjaro Climbing Tour: Karanga Camp to Barafu Camp

Mount Kilimanjaro - In the morning, after breakfast, the group will head to Barafu Summit Camp (4,640m), the starting point for a night ascent of Uhuru Peak (5,895m).

After recovering, an acclimatization trek to Kosovo Summit Intermediate Camp (4,800m) is recommended, followed by a return to Barafu Camp where a hot dinner will be served.

Kilimanjaro Climbing Tour: Ascent to Uhuru Peak and Descent to Millennium Camp

Mount Kilimanjaro - Depart from Barafu Camp (4,640 m) at night to begin the ascent of Kilimanjaro: Uhuru Peak (5,895 m). Technically, the ascent is relatively straightforward; however, the high altitude presents the greatest challenge. Each pair of climbers is assigned a personal guide for the entire climb, who monitors their physical and mental condition. After successfully reaching Uhuru Peak, the summit of Kilimanjaro and the final point of the ascent on the Lemosho route, climbers may choose to descend to the nearest glacier. They will then return to Barafu Camp, and after a 2-hour rest, continue the descent to Millennium Camp (3,820m).

Kilimanjaro Descent: Millennium Camp to Mweka Gate, then to Moshi

Mount Kilimanjaro - The campsite is located in a tropical rainforest. Upon waking, climbers will feel relief from the reduced altitude and satisfaction from reaching the summit.

After the descent, the entire group will gather to celebrate, and there will be an opportunity to share thoughts on the ascent in the guest book.
