* A great guide and an experienced team

Featuring captivating scenic vistas, pristine wildlife, excellent acclimatization opportunities and low traffic of climbers, Lemosho is one of the best kilimanjaro routes. Besides it is our personal favorite one for reaching the roof of Africa. After a 4-hour long drive from Arusha to Londorossi Gate you'll find yourself on the western slope of Mt Kilimanjaro, from there the route will take you to the world-famous Shira Plateau. That's where you'll embark on your adventure through all climate zones - from alpine meadows to eternal ice. The climb is smooth and gradual. Lemosho route success rate is the highest among all of the routes on kilimanjaro . Six, seven and eight-day programs are available, so you can choose depending on the amount of time at your disposal. Longer programs are always recommended over the shorter ones for better acclimatization. 6 and 7-day Lemosho programs start from a high-altitude drop-off: you’ll be transferred to the elevation of 3,500 m/ 11,500 f by an off-road vehicle and start the hike from there. This is meant to maximize acclimatization transition - the higher you start, the easier your adaptation will be.

Kilimanjaro International Airport

Tag 1-2

ARRIVAL Kilimanjaro Airport – Arusha Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport, our driver will be waiting for you. He will take you to your hotel in Arusha. The rest of the day is for you to relax and prepare for your upcoming trip. You can also visit the town of Arusha (taxi required). In the late afternoon, our Kilimanjaro team will meet you at the lodge to brief you on your upcoming trek and check your equipment. Dinner

Arusha

Tag 2-3

TREKKING FROM LEMOSHO GATE TO MTI MKUBWA CAMP Arusha – Starting Point Lemosho (2,385m) – Big Tree Camp (2,780m) In the morning you will be taken to Londorossi Gate (2,250m). Upon completion of all the entry formalities and a final 15 km drive on a bumpy road, you will reach your starting point at the edge of the rainforest. You will enjoy lunch before you set out on the trail through the rainforest. Today’s walk is quite short, thus giving you time to enjoy the lush scenery which will drastically change over the course of your trek. You might even catch a glimpse of the thumbless colobus monkeys sitting in the branches above you. Your dinner and overnight await you at the beautiful Big Tree Camp. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Mti Mkubwa Camp

Tag 3-4

TREKKING FROM MTI MKUBWA CAMP TO SHIRA ONE CAMP Big Tree Camp (2,780m) – Shira Camp 1 (3,500m) As you walk along the thin trail through the rainforest, you will notice the vegetation becoming scarcer and scarcer until you finally reach moorland filled with lobelia and erica plants. Ascending through rolling hills, you will reach Shira Camp 1 in about 3 to 4 hours. Looking over the Shira Plateau from your camp you will be able to see the unmistakable snow-capped summit of Kibo. A hearty evening meal and a last glimpse at the starry sky will bring the day to a close. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Shira Camp One

Tag 4-5

TREKKING FROM SHIRA ONE CAMP TO SHIRA TWO CAMP Shira Camp 1 (3,500m) – Shira Camp 2 (3,900m) Today you will cross Shira Ridge with its rocky ground, low grasses, and shrubs. As the terrain is much flatter than the day before, your hike will seem more leisurely and you will enjoy fantastic views of the Great Rift Valley and Mount Meru. Beautiful and distinctive giant lobelias still dot the moor landscape. Walking on the ground where lava used to flow you will reach Shira Camp 2, where you will have your evening meal and overnight stay. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Shira II - Shira Hut

Tag 5-6

TREKKING FROM SHIRA TWO CAMP TO BARANCO CAMP Shira Camp 2 (3,900m) – Lava Tower (4,640m) – Barranco Camp (3,960m) After breakfast, you will start your ascent to Lava Tower through a boulder-strewn terrain. In the distance, you will see Kibo encouraging you to continue uphill. Reaching Lava Tower, you will rest and allow your body to get used to the higher altitude, after which you continue downwards to Barranco Camp. This method of climbing high but sleeping low allows your body to acclimatize to the differing altitudes and gives you a good idea of how your body reacts to changes in altitude. Along the way the scenery changes once more and soon you are surrounded by giant senecios and smaller lobelias. After 6 to 7 hours you will reach the beautiful and green Barranco Camp, which offers great views of the surrounding snow-capped mountains. After dinner, you will settle in for the night. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner.

Baranco Camp

Tag 6-7

TREKKING FROM BARANCO CAMP TO KARANGA CAMP Barranco Camp (3,960m) – Karanga Camp (4,035m) The famous Barranco wall, which is probably the steepest part of the entire route, awaits you after breakfast. Although no technical climbing is necessary, some spots do require you to use your hands for a better grip and to pull yourself up. Your guide will be close by to help you if necessary. After you have pulled yourself around the Kissing Rock you will make your way along the mountain ridge and through the Karanga Valley. You will also pass the last water spot as you finally reach Karanga Camp. After a well-deserved meal, it is off to bed. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Karanga Camp

Tag 7-8

TREKKING FROM KARANGA CAMP TO BARAFU CAMP Karanga Camp (4,035m) – Barafu Camp (4,640m) Today you will make your way to Barafu Camp. The landscape is very dry and the ground cracks like glass under your boots. As you make your way through the afro-alpine dessert to the rocky Barafu Camp, a sense of excitement sweeps over you as your final stretch is only a few hours away. The Barafu Camp with its rocky scenery allows for a stunning view of Mawenzi Peak and the summit path ahead. After an early dinner and last-minute preparation for tomorrow, you will go to bed. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Barafu Camp

Tag 8-9

SUMMITING ON UHURU PEAK AND DESCENT TO MWEKA CAMP Barafu Camp (4,640m) – Uhuru Peak (5,895m) – Mweka Camp (3,080m) At around midnight you will be awoken with some hot tea and biscuits in order to get you ready for today’s ascents. You will ascend in a north-westerly direction through heavy scree toward Stella Point, arriving there in about 5 to 7 hours. At Stella Point (5,730m) you may rest if necessary before taking on another 1 to 2 hour stretch along the crater rim to Uhuru Peak – the highlight of your trip. A breath-taking view awaits you as you stand on the highest mountain in Africa. After taking as many pictures as your camera will allow, you will leave behind the glistening glaciers and snowy peaks and make your way back down to Barafu Camp. Here you will have time to catch your breath before heading further down to Mweka Camp, an approximate 3-hour walk. A scrumptious dinner and a peaceful night’s sleep await you. Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Reaching Mweka Gate you will be greeted by our transfer driver, who will take you back to the hotel . The rest of the day is for you to enjoy at leisure – enjoy a long shower, jump in the pool or just relax at the bar. Dinner and overnight at hotel. Breakfast; Dinner
