The route’s unique approach starts with a high-altitude drop-off, allowing you to immediately immerse yourself in the alpine zone, skipping the first night at Shira 1 Camp for those on the 6-day itinerary. The Lemosho trek boasts the highest success rate among all 6-day routes, with about 80% of climbers reaching the summit.

The Lemosho route on Mount Kilimanjaro goes parallel to the lower part of the Shira Route. The trail on the Lemosho Route is unspoiled, secluded and a very beautiful way up to the Shira Plateau. Above the plateau, you approach Kilimanjaro's great western Breach, then follow the south circuit to reach the easier Barafu Route. This is one of the few routes where an armed ranger will accompany us as there are still animals in the forest around the Lemosho Glades.
The Lemosho route will take 9 days in total. The route is the most scenic on the lower part as it goes directly through a rainforest area with wildlife. Later on, this route merges with the popular Machame route.
You can bring around 15 kgs of luggage for the trip. The porters will carry most of the 15 kgs, and you will yourself carry a small day-pack. As soon as you book with us, we will brief you further on luggage and trekking clothes.
At Zara Tours, we look forward to take you on a climb of a lifetime to Mount Kilimanjaro.
