Considered as the most beautiful route on Mt. Kilimanjaro that grants panoramic vistas.
A great balance of low traffic, scenic views and a high summit success rate.
For a truly panoramic Kilimanjaro experience, the Lemosho Route stands out as the most beautiful and rewarding option available. Approaching from the west, trekkers begin with a long drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate, followed by two days traversing the lush rainforest en route to the Shira Ridge.
The route is known for its low traffic in the early stages, merging with the Machame Route later on, and follows the southern circuit past landmarks like Lava Tower, Barranco, and Barafu. Spanning eight days, this itinerary is designed to maximize acclimatization and your chances of reaching the summit with ease.
Trekkers are treated to sweeping views from various sides of Kilimanjaro, with the chance to spot wildlife in the forest zone. Though slightly more expensive than other routes due to the longer duration and logistics, the Lemosho Route’s unique selling point is its perfect balance of scenic vistas, minimal crowds, and a high summit success rate. This tour package is highly recommended for anyone seeking a comprehensive Kilimanjaro trekking adventure.
This is by far the best route for climbing Kilimanjaro. Days 3-6 go up & down to get you acclimatized before summitting on day 7. Don't do it any shorter than 8 days.
