Mount Kilimanjaro
Our guides will arrive at the hotel in the morning to meet you and hold a quick briefing. You’ll then be transferred to Kilimanjaro National Park's eastern entrance at the Marangu Gate (1,860m/6,046ft). After some quick formalities (registering with the rescue service and obtaining your climbing permits), the group will start trekking up to Mandara Hut (2,700m/8,858ft). The trekking route includes a passage through the rainforest. Tropical showers are highly probable, so we recommend taking raincoats. The full hiking distance is 16km, takes approximately 7-8 hours, and is medium difficulty.
When you reach the camp, you will be provided with lunch boxes. After lunch you can take a hike to the beautiful Maundi Crater nearby. It will take about 30 minutes, after which you will start your descent back to the park exit. There our driver will pick you up and drive you to your hotel in Moshi town.
