Overview

Experience the beauty of Mount Kilimanjaro on a full-day hike, perfect for those wanting to explore Africa’s highest peak without a multi-day climb.

Choose between the Marangu Route to Mandara Huts or the Machame Route to the Shira Plateau.

The Marangu Route takes you through lush rainforest, where you may spot blue and colobus monkeys, leading to the Mandara Huts at 2,700 meters for a scenic rest and lunch in a peaceful mountain setting.

The Machame Route offers a more rugged journey, starting in forest and opening into heath and moorland as you approach the Shira Plateau, with sweeping views and dramatic landscapes along the way, including the peak of Kilimanjaro.

After enjoying your chosen route, descend back down, completing a rewarding day on Kilimanjaro filled with fresh air, stunning scenery, and a true sense of adventure.
