    After a nourishing breakfast at Karanga Camp, the trek continues towards Barafu Camp, the final base before the summit push. The trail becomes steeper, and the landscape transforms into a stark, rocky environment with few signs of vegetation. Along the way, you will see stunning views of Kibo Peak and the southern glaciers, giving you a taste of what’s to come at the summit.

    Upon arrival at Barafu Camp, you will take time to relax, hydrate, and have an early dinner. The camp is set on a rugged ridge, offering sweeping views of Mawenzi Peak and the vast plains below.
