Planning before you climb Kilimanjaro
Kilimanjaro offers a variety of routes to suit your experience and preferences. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular choices to help you select your perfect Kilimanjaro adventure:
Marangu Route (Coca-Cola Route): Known for its ease of access and comfortable hut accommodation (the only route with huts), Marangu is a good option for first-time climbers or those seeking a less strenuous trek. However, it’s also the most crowded route and offers less scenic variety compared to others.
Machame Route (Whisky Route): This scenic and popular route is considered moderately challenging. Machame offers stunning vistas of diverse ecological zones and utilizes camping for accommodation. It boasts a higher success rate due to its gradual ascent profile, allowing for better acclimatization.
Lemosho Route: Widely regarded as the most scenic route, Lemosho offers a longer and more remote experience with fantastic wildlife viewing opportunities. This route utilizes camping and is known for its excellent acclimatization profile, leading to a higher summit success rate. However, it’s also one of the more expensive options.
Rongai Route: The Rongai Route offers a unique perspective as the only approach from the north face. This route is considered the easiest due to its gentler slopes, but it has less diverse scenery and requires a longer transfer due to its remote location. Accommodation is typically provided in tents.
Conquering Kilimanjaro is a dream for many, but timing is key. To ensure the best possible experience and maximize your chances of summit success, we recommend climbing during the dry season. Here’s a breakdown:
- Peak Climbing Seasons: The dry seasons offer the most favorable conditions for climbing Kilimanjaro, with minimal rain and clear skies. These seasons run from December to mid-March and from mid-June to the end of October.
