Day 3

Kilimanjaro Hike

Kilimanjaro Hike

The day trip to Mt. Kilimanjaro starts around 5 am from Arusha (or even earlier to avoid traffic). Depending on the location of your hotel, the journey will take between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. After an early breakfast, you’ll depart with your guide and drive to Kilimanjaro National Park to begin the Kilimanjaro day hike.

The hike takes you up to the vast Shira Plateau, at an elevation of 3,600 meters. This 500,000-year-old volcanic caldera is now a World Heritage Site. You can stop for lunch here or continue to Shira 1 Camp, Lion Gorge, and the foothills of the Shira Pinnacles. From here, you should have a clear view of Kilimanjaro’s iconic snow-covered tabletop, Kibo Peak, as well as the neighboring glaciers. After that, you will be dropped off at the airport or your accommodation.
