Itinerary

The Lemosho Route to Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest mountain, is a fairly new route with a better summiting rate.

This 'Eight-Day Mount Kilimanjaro Lemosho Trek' commences on the western side of the mountain, providing breathtaking views of Mount Meru and Kenya’s Amboseli National Park plains. The itinerary has an additional day so that trekkers can acclimatize to the altitude, increasing their chance of reaching the summit.

The trek also boasts breathtaking vistas of verdant forests and mountains. The highlights include the Lava Towers, the Great Barranco Wall, and a great view of the Kibo Peak. The route also provides opportunity for bird and wildlife sightings. The main highlight though is the Uhuru Peak, the highest point of Mount Kilimanjaro at 5,895 meters, where we will set our foot on the seventh day of the trek.

See the itinerary section for more details.

day 1Lemosho Gate (2,385 m) – Big Tree Camp (2,780 m)

In the morning, you will be transferred to Lemosho Gate (2,385m), where you will be registered by the national park authorities for your trek.
Enjoy a hearty lunch before you set out on the trail through the rainforest. Today’s walk is quite short, thus giving you time to enjoy the lush scenery which will drastically change over the course of your trek. You might even catch a glimpse of the thumbless colobus monkeys sitting in the branches above you.
Your dinner and overnight awaits you at the beautiful Big Tree Camp.

Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled. (Even when we got lost) The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative. Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities. Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.
