Trekking Summary

Hiking on the “rooftop of Africa” is an epic adventure and a lifetime unforgettable experience for those who are prepared to take on a physical and mental challenge. This is a multi-day trek to significant altitude, led by experienced guides. You will need to be determined and resilient to face the sub-zero temperatures and the very thin air of the mountain peak. Tough, but truly rewarding, this challenge will leave you with an unforgettable experience- to last a lifetime. The Lemosho route is a bit challenging and much more scenic with multiple viewpoints of the glorious Kilimanjaro Mountain. Your mountain guide will unfold all the experiences and information needed at that particular time of the climb; this brings more interaction and ascending interest.
