   Around midnight, wake up to go to the top of Uhuru, the roof of Africa. The hike begins with a 5-hour hike to Gillman's Point at the crater rim. Although it is considered the easiest of the three ascents of the crater, it is still extremely challenging. The first main resting area, William's Point, is located at 5000 meters and is about a two-hour walk from Kibo Hut. Continue for thirty minutes before starting the rocky backtrack that will continue to Gillman's Point (5,681 meters). The hike from Gilman's to Uhuru Peak is a gradual climb, and the hike isn't too difficult. However, the altitude makes the hike long and tiring. The hike to the crater rim takes about two hours. Arriving at Uhuru, snap a photo of your guide and group at the summit before starting down the Horombo Hut. Stop for a while and have a snack at Kibo Hut before continuing on to Horombo Hut. Join the Horombo Hut in the afternoon and enjoy your last night in the mountains. Meals: Includes breakfast, lunch and dinner
