About this experience
The Rongai Route is the only Kilimanjaro Climbing Route approaching from the northern side of the mountain, just near the Kenyan border. If you’re looking for seclusion this route is perfect for you. As this Kilimanjaro Route sees very less traffic due to its remote location. To add to that, the Rongai Route offers fantastic views of Mt. Kilimanjaro and overlooking the equally stunning Kenyan plains. Due to its remote location, it is less frequently climbed.
The Rongai route is considered to be one of the easier Kilimanjaro Climbing Routes. If you have less backpacking and lesser hiking experience then don’t worry, this route is perfect for you.
