Overview
The Lemosho Route stands out as the premier path up Mount Kilimanjaro. Not long ago, only two primary routes, the Marangu and the Machame, were favored for this climb. However, the Lemosho Route has emerged as our top choice—an incredible, extensive, and remarkably scenic passage on Kilimanjaro. This route guides you through serene trails that boast breathtaking panoramas.
In the rainforest, witness the exquisite beauty of dawn casting its light through the lush, emerald foliage. As mist gently envelops the lichen-covered trees, the melodious tunes of songbirds break the silence, accompanied by the playful antics of distinctive blue monkeys swinging overhead. Transitioning to the smooth terrain of the awe-inspiring Shira Plateau reveals the towering presence of the magnificent Lava Tower.
The Barranco Valley treats you to stunning vistas of azure glaciers. Across vast plains of the Savannah, wildlife speckles the landscape, offering the possibility of encountering majestic elephants or buffalo. Descending via the Mweka Route presents favorable acclimatization conditions, increasing the likelihood of completing the nine-day Lemosho Route.
While reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro captivates the hearts of all who conquer it, this particular route profoundly encapsulates the magnificence of Africa.
