10 Best Fall Tours in Kilimanjaro Rongai route
Join one of these handpicked Kilimanjaro Rongai route Fall tour packages, tailored to the season.
Zara Tours leads treks up the unique Rongai Route known to be more scenic than the Marangu Route, easier than the Machame Route, and the success rate on the Rongai is very high. Unlike the Marangu Route where you sleep in huts, on the Rongai you sleep in tents (tents are included), and our porters will pitch your tent for you. Meals are served in a dinner tent or on a blanket outside.
The Kilimanjaro Rongai route starts on the north side of the mountain just south of the Kenyan border, and is one of the least traveled routes. The Rongai route joins the Marangu route before the summit climb, then you descend the Marangu Route on the mountain's southeast side.

The Rongai route begins at the remote northern side of Kilimanjaro near the Kenyan border. We will be hiking through a true wilderness area towards the jagged Mawenzi Peak then cross a barren desert before climbing up Kibo’s eastern crater wall. The Rongai route is a more slow ascent and is therefore preferred by those with little or no backpacking experience but is equally enjoyable for even the most hardened Kilimanjaro climbers.
During the climb you will have 5 nights of full-service camping, with a private toilet tent. There is a large communal tent, which is used for dining and at other times in the event of inclement weather. Limited single accommodation is also available and includes a single tent as well as the hotel nights.
We can arrange extra accommodation before or after the trip if needed.

Seeking a less-trodden path to Africa’s highest peak? The 7 Day Mount Kilimanjaro trekking through Rongai route offers a unique ascent from the north, skirting the Kenyan border and revealing Kilimanjaro’s wilder side. This trip is a standout for those who prefer solitude over crowds, especially compared to the busier Marangu route. The Rongai route’s primary allure is its tranquil, remote wilderness, making it a perfect trekking adventure for those craving a quieter journey. The trail’s moderate difficulty—recommended for climbers with limited backpacking experience—ensures it’s accessible yet rewarding. Over seven days, you’ll traverse unspoiled landscapes, spending several days immersed in pristine nature before merging with the Marangu descent at Kibo camp. This route is also ideal for trekkers planning their climb during the rainy season, as the north side receives less precipitation. Although the scenery is somewhat less varied than on the western routes, the sense of isolation and the opportunity to connect deeply with nature more than compensates. For travelers seeking a Kilimanjaro tour package that combines accessibility, tranquility, and adventure, the Rongai route is a highly recommended choice—its USP lies in offering a more intimate and less crowded Kilimanjaro experience.

Rongai route approaches Kilimanjaro from the north-eastern section of the mountain, not far from the Kenyan border. It is considered quite remote but has seen a surge in trekkers in recent years. On this route, the drive to the trailhead at Nale Moru is long but the road is tarmac most of the way. With a starting point in Arusha, the routes on the souther or western side are more popular because of accessibility.
