Trek Itinerary

 

Day 1: Marangu Gate (1860m) to Mandara Hut (2700m)  

After    breakfast, you will be collected from your lodge in Moshi and taken  to   the Marangu gate. Once the necessary paper work has been completed,   your  trek can begin and you will soon be hiking through the dense    rainforest. Alongside the impressive vegetation, you will have the    chance to catch a glimpse of some primates as you head to the Mandara    Hut. After a well-earned rest, your guide can take you to the Maundi    Crater where you can enjoy the wonderful view of the Kenyan interior.

  • Distance covered: 8.3km / 5.2mi 
  • Approx. time taken: 5 hours
  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included


Day 2: Mandara Hut (2700m) to Horombo Hut (3700m)  

The  day begins with an early breakfast. Shortly after you have left   Mandara  Hut, you will reach the timberline and then enter the heath  and  moor  zone. Approximately 4 – 6 hours later, the Horombo Hut will  come  into  sight, standing at an altitude of 3700m. From the hut, you  will  have  fantastic views overlooking Mawenzi, Kibo and the wide plain  of  the  Masai steppe.

  • Distance covered: 12.5km / 7.8mi 
  • Approx. time taken: 9 hours
  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included


Day 3: Horombo Hut (3700m) to Kibo Hut (4700m) 

 Today’s    stage is long and tough. The well-built trail passes the “Last Water    point” which is followed by the so-called “saddle”. This nearly    vegetation less plateau joins the main summit Kibo with Mawenzi.   Today’s  destination is the Kibo Hut that is usually reached in about 5  –  6  hours. Here, you will enjoy an early evening meal followed by an   early  night, as the night will be short.

  • Distance covered: 9.5km / 5.9mi 
  • Approx. time taken: 7 hours
  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included


Day 4: Kibo Hut (4700m) to UHURU PEAK (5895m) & down to Horombo Hut (3700m)  

Today   is “The Big Day” – the summit stage. You will begin your final ascent    around midnight which will be long and strenuous. Passing the Hans   Meyer Cave at 5220m, the climb slowly but surely goes upwards. At   sunrise,  you will reach Gillman’s Point (5681m) – the crater rim of   Kilimanjaro –  where the sun will slowly start to warm up the land. You   will have soon forgotten the cold of the night and after a further  hike  of 1 – 2  hours, you will reach Uhuru Peak at 5895m. On your  return to  Kibo Hut, a warm meal awaits you followed by a 1 – 2 hour  break before  proceeding  back down to Horombo Hut.

  • Distance covered: 22km / 13.7mi 
  • Approx. time taken: 12 – 15 hours
  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included


Day 5: Horombo Hut (3700m) to Marangu Gate (1860m) 

The   last stage passes through the heath and moor zone to the Mandara Hut    (2700m) where a warm lunch is waiting for you. Soon, you will once   again  pass the tropical rainforest and after a total time of 6 hours    trekking, you will be back at the Kilimanjaro National Park Gate    (1860m). After saying goodbye to your mountain guides, a short  transfer   follows to take you back to your hotel in Moshi. Once there,  you can   take a warm and relaxing shower and celebrate your success in  reaching   the summit of the Kilimanjaro.
