Safari itinerary.

Elevation: 1811m/5942ft to 3021m/9911ft Altitude gained: 1210m A 45-minute journey from Moshi will take you via the Machame Village to the Kilimanjaro National Park Gate. We will patiently await the issuance of our licenses while witnessing the hustle and bustle of activities as several personnel prepares for the voyage ahead.

The route at these lower levels might be muddy and treacherous. Gaiters and hiking poles are strongly recommended.

Day 2: Machame camp-Shira camp: Kilimanjaro National Park.
Elevation gain: 818m from 3021m/9911ft to 3839m/12,595ft We emerge from the rain forest after a nice night’s sleep and a healthy meal and continue on a climbing trail, crossing the valley over a high rocky slope. The trail now heads west along a river canyon until we reach the Shira campground. Temperatures start to fall.

Day 3: Shira camp-Lava Tower- Barranco camp: Kilimanjaro National Park.
Elevation ranges from 3839m/12,595ft to 3986m/13,077ft. Gained altitude: 147m Although you conclude the day at around the same height as you started, this day is critical for acclimatization. We continue east along a ridge, crossing the intersection towards the Kibo peak, before turning southeast towards the “Shark’s Tooth” Lava Tower (Elev. 4650m/15,250ft). We reach a second fork just after the tower, which leads to the Arrow Glacier. We then continue our descent to Barranco Camp, where we will spend the night.

Day 4: Barranco camp-Karanga camp-Barafu Camp: Kilimanjaro National Park.
Elevation: 3986m/13,077ft to 4034m/13,235ft to 4662m/15,295ft 676m ascent After breakfast, we continue on a rocky slope up to the difficult Barranco Wall to the Karanga Valley and the connection with the Mweka Trail. This is one of the most spectacular days, seeing your crew’s power, agility, and strength jet over this wall with seeming ease. We continue up toward Barafu Camp, and once there, you have finished the South Circuit, which provides amazing views of the peak from several viewpoints. We’ll eat early and relax before summit night. Overnight in Barafu Camp.
- Accommodation: Barafu camp.

Day 5: Barafu camp-Summit-Mweka Camp: Kilimanjaro National Park.

The anticipation is growing as the morning approaches with an early start between midnight and 2 a.m. This is the most psychologically and physically demanding part of the journey. We continue our ascent between the Rebmann and Ratzel glaciers, striving to keep warm and focused on the incredible feeling of achievement that awaits us.
Ascend across hard scree towards Stella Point on the crater rim using a switchback motion in a northwesterly direction. During your brief stay here, you will be rewarded with a spectacular dawn. Faster hikers may be able to see the dawn from the peak. You will most likely encounter snow on your last 1-hour trek to Uhuru Peak. For unruly loose gravel and volcanic ash terrain, we highly suggest gaiters and hiking poles. A well-deserved relaxation awaits you as you spend your last evening at Mweka Camp.
- Accommodation: Mweka camp.
- Meals: Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner.
Day 6: Mweka camp-Mweka gate-Moshi: Kilimanjaro National Park.
Elevation loss: 1473m from 3106m/10,190ft to 1633m/5358ft It’s time to say farewell after breakfast and a moving ceremony of thanks and team building with your staff. We proceed down to the Mweka Park Gate to get your summit certificates. The terrain is damp, muddy, and steep due to the warmer weather, and we strongly suggest Gaiters and trekking poles. A van will meet you in Mweka village and take you back to your accommodation in Moshi. Enjoy a long-awaited hot shower, food, and festivities!!
