Hiking

What you'll do

Join us on the Rongai Route, Kilimanjaro's serene path from the north-east, skirting the Amboseli plains towards Uhuru Peak, west of Mawenzi. Known for its solitude and simplicity, it's ideal for camping and favored in the rainy season for its drier northern slopes. Choose your summit path: the popular Mawenzi Tarn Hut or the challenging School Hut, with prior acclimatization advised for the latter. Both lead to Gilman’s Point on the Crater Rim, offering a less-trodden journey to the peak.
