Additional Information

The Marangu route is otherwise known as the ‘Coca-Cola’ route. It’s deemed the simplest trail on the mountain due to its steady incline and straightforward direction. It’s the most established and old route on Kilimanjaro, offering sleeping huts in dormitory style. Comforts like mattresses and pillows are provided, though one would still need a sleeping bag. The huts include shared dining areas, fundamental washrooms, and toilets. However, the brevity of the route can hinder proper altitude acclimatization. This route to Mount Kilimanjaro is taken from the southeast. Unfortunately, Marangu offers less variety in scenery as the climb up and down use the same trail, making it the busiest route. Kilimanjaro Hiking Companies propose a five or six-day expedition on the Marangu route, with the five-day option eliminating the day three acclimatization stop at Horombo Hut.

Nothing like Kilimanjaro - Being born and raised in Tanzania, climbing Kilimanjaro was on my list. I moved away but I knew that was something I had to do, and I am so glad that I did! Climbing Kili was one of my best experiences to date! Don’t miss out.. if you have the chance just go for it.

All the way to the top! Never climbed before in my life. - Thanks to the staff who helped me reach the Uhuru Peak. If you haven‘t done any climbing before in your life, I would suggest to take a route that takes longer, so you can ajust to the height differences.

Best and hard experience in my life - We climbed the Kilimanjaro on the Marangu route (also named Coca-Coca or touristic route) the only one where you can sleep in the huts. We find the path easy until we reach 4800 m, last night, the climb to the summit was really hard but we really really enjoyed our stay on kilimanjaro. Guides was excellent, the views was nice, food very good, and I received my proposal on top 🥰 Best and hard experience on my life! If you want to help this beautiful country and also people that lives there please climb Kilimanjaro, the prince worth every step!

The roof of Africa - Definitely the hardest thing I’ve ever done but also one of the best! It’s not for everyone but I am glad I did it! Being it was during the pandemic after Tanzania opened I was alone except for my climbing team! Once in a lifetime!
