About this experience
Embark on this epic 7-day Kilimanjaro Rongai hiking adventure and enjoy thrilling scenic vistas and pristine wildlife on the way to the peak of Africa. This most picturesque, least crowded route with the smoothest acclimatization transition is an ideal choice for the beginners and experienced hikers alike. You will cross several climatic zones (from heath on Shira Plateau to Arctic desert in the summit area), each different, unique and captivating.
Our professional climbing crews will take care of your safety and comfort. Overnight stays are in our special walk-in tents, the “kitchen” team will surprise you with their cooking skills, and the porters will carry the equipment. The guides will be leading your way, excitedly sharing their knowledge of this amazing Mount.
Pre and post-climb accommodation (included) will be in a cosy hotel in the foothills of Kilimanjaro. Airport transfers included.
