Arrival in Moshi

Upon your arrival in Moshi, Tanzania, you will be greeted by Our representatives. They will provide you with a briefing about the climb and conduct an equipment check to ensure you have all the necessary gear. You will spend the night in a hotel in Moshi, where you can rest and prepare for the adventure ahead.

Day 1:

The adventure begins as you arrive at the Marangu Gate, the starting point of the trek. After completing registration and necessary formalities, you set off through the lush rainforest. The trail winds its way up steadily, and you'll have the chance to spot various exotic plant and bird species along the way. After several hours of hiking, you reach the Mandara Hut at an elevation of approximately 2,700 meters. This cozy hut will be your first overnight stop, providing you with a comfortable resting place for the night.

Day 2:

 Refreshed and ready for a new day, you continue your journey towards the Horombo Hut. Leaving the rainforest behind, the terrain transitions into moorland characterized by heather and other alpine vegetation. The trail becomes steeper as you ascend, and the views start to open up, revealing the vastness of the surrounding landscape. Finally, you arrive at the Horombo Hut, located at an altitude of about 3,700 meters. Here, you'll spend the night, enjoying a hearty meal and taking in the breathtaking panoramas.

Day 3:

Acclimatization is crucial when climbing Kilimanjaro, and this day is dedicated to it. You'll embark on a short hike towards the Zebra Rocks, gaining altitude before descending back to the Horombo Hut. This process helps your body adjust to the increasing elevation and enhances your chances of a successful summit attempt. The remainder of the day can be spent relaxing, chatting with fellow climbers, or simply enjoying the awe-inspiring views of the surrounding mountains.

Day 4:

As the peak of Kilimanjaro looms closer, you leave the Horombo Hut and ascend further towards the Kibo Hut. The landscape transforms into a barren alpine desert, with rocky terrain and sparse vegetation. The hike becomes more challenging as the air gets thinner, requiring perseverance and mental strength. After a demanding trek, you reach the Kibo Hut, situated at approximately 4,700 meters. This is where you will rest before the final push to the summit.

Day 5:

The most anticipated day has arrived—the summit attempt. You wake up in the early hours of the morning, fueled by excitement and determination. With headlamps illuminating the way, you begin the arduous climb towards the Uhuru Peak, the highest point of Mount Kilimanjaro, standing at an elevation of 5,895 meters. The ascent is challenging, both physically and mentally, as you navigate steep slopes and traverse scree fields. Finally, after several hours of relentless effort, you reach the summit, where you can revel in the triumphant feeling of accomplishment and savor the awe-inspiring views from the top. After celebrating and capturing memories, you descend back to the Kibo Hut for a well-deserved rest. From there, you continue the descent to the Horombo Hut, where you spend the final night on the mountain.

Note: It's important to remember that climbing Kilimanjaro is a physically demanding activity and requires proper preparation, fitness, and acclimatization. It's advisable to consult with experienced guides and operators who can provide personalized advice and support throughout the journey.
