Hi! My name is Aloyce. Are you traveling to Tanzania and looking for an adventure? Join my trip and experience Materuni Waterfalls, Moshi Town, and more! Traverse a beautiful landscape on this not so crowded route in Mt. Kilimanjaro. The Lemosho route is one of the newer routes on the mountain, and a superb choice for your climb. The Lemosho route is considered the most scenic trail on Kilimanjaro, granting panoramic vistas on various sides of the mountain. About This Route The Lemosho route is one of our preferred routes due to its beautiful scenery and high summit success rate. The Lemosho route is located from the west, beginning with a long drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate. Sometimes the route is dusty due to many vehicles. From there, the first two days are spent trekking through the lush rainforest to Shira Plateau. We recommend a minimum of 7 days to attempt this route but 8 days is preferable for better acclimatization and summit success. The Lemosho route joins the Machame route after Shira 2 Camp and then follows the same route through the southern circuit and descending at Mweka Gate. ✏️ Let me share with you the Itinerary: Day 0: Arrive in Tanzania. Day 1: Lemosho Glades (2385m) to Big Tree Camp (2780m) Day 2: Big Tree Camp (2780m) to Shira 2 Camp (3900m) Day 3: Shira 2 Camp (3900m) to Barranco Camp (3960m) Day 4: Barranco Camp (3960m) to Karanga Camp (3963m) Day 5: Karanga Camp (3963) to Barafu Camp (4640m) Day 6: Barafu Camp (4640m) to UHURU PEAK (5895m) & down to Mweka Camp (3100m) Day 7: Trek Mweka Camp (3100m) to Mweka Gate (1630m) Day 8: Depart Tanzania or to the next destination either safari or Zanzibar beach. 💰 What is included in the price? - Pick up and drop off at Kilimanjaro International Airport. - Pre & Post Trek accommodation at Hotel - Park fees, camping fees, rescue fees, and 18% VAT on tour fees & services which cost nearly 55% of the total cost charged. - 4 Season mountain tents - Sleeping Mats - Transportation to & from the mountain gate - Professional mountain guides, cooks, and porters - 3 meals daily while on the mountain - Filtered water throughout the trek - Fair wages for the mountain crew as approved by the Kilimanjaro National Park Authority (KINAPA), Kilimanjaro Association of Tour Operators (KIATO) - Portable flush toilets can be provided for free upon the client’s request.
