Kilimanjaro Machame Gate

Kilimanjaro National Park - Begin your day with a picturesque drive to the Kilimanjaro National Park gate, marking the official start of your adventure. As you hike through the lush rainforest trails towards Shira Cathedral, watch for the playful black-and-white colobus monkeys peeking through the canopy. The trail gradually ascends, leading you through ever-changing landscapes rich in greenery and mist. After 5 to 6 hours of hiking, you’ll arrive at Machame Camp, situated at 3,010 meters above the treeline. Here, with sweeping views and crisp mountain air, you’ll relax with a warm dinner and settle into your first night on the mountain—your journey has truly begun.

Machame Camp to Shira Hut Campsite

Kilimanjaro National Park - After breakfast, depart from the rain forest glades and continue on an ascending path, crossing a small valley and walking along a steep rocky ridge covered with heather until the ridge ends. The route then turns west onto a river gorge at 3,658 meters (5-7 hours). You’ll spend the night at Shira Hut Campsite (3,845 meters).

Shira Hut Campsite To Barranco Camp Via Lava Tower

Kilimanjaro National Park - Today’s trek takes you high above the Shira Plateau towards the towering Lava Tower at 4,640 meters. As you ascend, the lush greenery gives way to the stark beauty of the alpine desert, where hardy plants cling to life amid volcanic rock and open skies. The trail weaves through dramatic terrain, eventually descending into the enchanting Barranco Valley, known for its surreal forest of giant senecios and alien-like lobelias. After about 6 to 7 hours of trekking, you’ll reach Barranco Camp—arguably Kilimanjaro’s most scenic campsite, nestled beneath towering cliffs and framed by sweeping valley views.

Barranco Camp to Barafu Camp

Kilimanjaro National Park - Today’s journey begins with the famous Barranco Wall—a thrilling, hands-on scramble that rewards you with epic views once you conquer its heights. Your guides will be right beside you, offering support every step of the way. After summiting the wall, you’ll descend into the scenic Karanga Valley, where a hot lunch awaits. Recharged, you’ll tackle a final ascent of 2–3 hours to reach Barafu Camp at 4,640 meters. Here, you’ll rest, dine, and settle in early—preparing both body and mind for the summit push ahead.

Barafu Camp to Uhuru Camp - Mweka Camp

Kilimanjaro National Park - Just before midnight, after a comforting cup of hot tea and light snacks, your final ascent to Uhuru Peak begins. Guided only by your headlamp and determination, you’ll trek silently through the darkness, navigating the steep scree slopes of Kibo. After 5 to 7 hours of climbing, you’ll arrive at Stella Point—where the horizon begins to glow. From here, the final push takes you along the awe-inspiring crater rim to Uhuru Peak (5,895 meters), the highest point in Africa. Standing on the “Roof of Africa,” you’ll witness a breathtaking 360° panorama. After capturing this unforgettable moment, descend carefully back to Barafu Camp for a well-earned hot meal and short rest. Your journey continues down to Mweka Camp (3,080 meters), a 5-hour descent through shifting terrain. Here, a warm dinner awaits, and you’ll fall asleep under the stars, with the magic of Kilimanjaro etched in your memory.

Mweka Camp to Mweka Gate - Arusha

Kilimanjaro National Park - Your final day begins with a peaceful descent through the lush rainforest, alive with birdsong and the scent of earth after mist. As you reach Mweka Gate, a warm celebration awaits—your mountain team will gather to honor your achievement. You’ll have the chance to reflect, sign the guestbook, and receive your official summit certificate—proof of your courage and determination. After the farewell moments, your driver will be ready to escort you back to the comfort of your hotel, where a hot shower and well-earned rest await.
