Day 2: We leave Moshi to Kilimanjaro gate – Mandara Hut

Stop At: Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro Region
Take a short drive from Moshi or Arusha town to the Kilimanjaro Park Gate (1,830 m.) lies at the edge of Marangu, which is an attractive village with many small coffee and banana plantations. After completing the entrance formalities, we climb up through attractive and unspoiled forest to reach the clearing containing Mandara Hut (2,700 m.). The volcanic remains of Maundi Crater are nearby, and make a good afternoon excursion. An alternative is to rest and enjoy the beautiful forest. There is a rich birdlife at the huts and monkeys are often seen as well. [3-5 hours walking to Mandara Hut] 5

Day 3: We leave Mandara Hut to Horombo Hut

Stop At: Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro Region
The first part of the walk is a steep ascent through forest, but the path soon opens out into grassy moorland and, in clear weather, there are good views of Kibo and Mawenzi peaks. We climb steadily through the moorland zone, containing giant heather and occasional stands of groundsel, to eventually reach Horombo Hut (3,720 m.). Sunrises and sunsets here are often very stunning, the site is close to the glaciated dome of Kibo, and there is a real sense of being above the clouds. [4-6 hours walking from Mandara Hut to Horombo Hut]

Accommodation included: Overnight at Horombo Hut

Day 4: We leave Horombo Hut to Kibo Hut Through Desert Saddle

Stop At: Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro Region
we climb very gradually towards the lunar desert of the Saddle between Mawenzi and Kibo. The terrain changes to screed and there is a palpable sense of high altitude wilderness. We usually reach Kibo Hut (4,700 m.) at the bottom of the crater wall by midday and the afternoon is free (to contemplate the summit ascent!!). The remainder of the day is spent resting and eating in preparation for the final climb before a very early night! [4-5 hours walking from Horombo Hut to Kibo Hut]
Duration: 5 hours

Accommodation included: Overnight at Kibo Hut

Day 5: We leave Kibo Hut to Summit, and down to Horombo Hut

Stop At: Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro Region
We will start our ascent by torchlight at about 1 a.m. so that we can be up at Gillman’s Point by sunrise. The initial climb is steep over loose volcanic screen, but there are some well-graded zig-zag and a slow but steady pace will have us up to Gillman’s (5,685 m.) in about five or six hours. We will rest there and spend some time taking in the sunrise. Those who are still feeling strong can make the three hour round trip from here along the crater rim to Uhuru Peak (5,896 m.), passing close to the spectacular glaciers that still occupy most of the summit area. The descent is surprisingly fast and we return to Horombo Hut for the night. [11-15 hours walking from Kibo Hut to Gillman’s Point]
Duration: 15 hours

Meals included:

•
Accommodation included: Overnight at Giliman point

Day 6: Safari to Kilimanjaro Retrace through Fores

Stop At: Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro National Park, Kilimanjaro Region
We retrace our steps with a pleasant moorland walk to Mandara and then a lovely forest walk to the National Park gates to Moshi or Arusha town. The greenness and lushness of the forest is quite a stunning contrast to the summit day, and it really makes you realize how varied the scenery on Kilimanjaro really is. [5-6 hours walking]
