Overview
Climb Mount Kilimanjaro
Are you ready to stand on the highest peak in Africa? Our classic 6-day Kilimanjaro Marangu route trekking package offers an incredible journey to Uhuru Peak. This historic path is uniquely famous because it features comfortable permanent wooden dormitory huts instead of camping tents.
You will hike safely alongside our highly experienced mountain crew, professional porters, and certified local guides. Furthermore, our specialized itinerary includes an essential built-in acclimatization day at high altitude. Consequently, your group will enjoy a much safer climb and higher overall summit success rates.
What to Expect on the Trail
The classic route begins at Marangu Gate and winds steadily through a spectacular, dense tropical rainforest. Here, you can spot playful blue monkeys and unique exotic birds before emerging into the vast heath and alpine moorland zone.
Next, the trail crosses a barren alpine desert saddle between the towering peaks of Mawenzi and Kibo. Finally, you will complete the steep volcanic scree summit push at midnight. Standing victoriously on the snow-capped crater rim at sunrise makes every step worth the physical effort.
