Mount Kilimanjaro Trekking 8-Day Lemosho Route

Panoramic mountain views, tranquil trails, and a high success rate—these are just a few reasons experienced trekkers opt for the 8-Day Mount Kilimanjaro Trekking Lemosho Route tour package. Approaching Africa’s tallest peak from the west, this extended trek allows you to soak in the region’s natural beauty while taking the time needed to acclimatize and enjoy each phase of the journey.

After a drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate, spend the opening days trekking through dense rainforests to Shira Ridge, before traversing the broad Shira Plateau in a peaceful, relatively flat hike. The route keeps crowds at bay until it joins the Machame trail near Lava Tower, then follows the dramatic Southern Circuit beneath the icy southern face before reaching the summit from Barafu. The descent via Mweka offers yet another facet of Kilimanjaro’s grandeur.

Praised for its scenic diversity and lower traffic, the Lemosho Route is a top pick for those who value a more immersive and less hurried trekking experience. The unique selling point: this tour offers an optimal balance of spectacular landscapes, acclimatization opportunities, and expert guiding—making it a preferred choice among dedicated mountaineers.
