My Trek Itinerary;

Day 1: Kilimanajaro Gate –Machame hut

Picked from Arusha/ Moshi to the trek Gate! We'll begin walking through the rain forest on a winding trail up a ridge. Gaiters and trekking poles are a good idea, as the trail can be muddy or slippery lower down. We continue a short distance until we reach the Machame Camp. Habitant; Forest.

Day 2: Machame camp – Shira Camp

After breakfast, we leave the glades of the rainforest and continue on an ascending path, crossing a little valley and walking along a steep rocky ridge, covered with heather, until the ridge ends. The route now turns west towards a river gorge. Dinner and overnight at the Shira campsite. Habitant; Moorland.

Day 3: Shira Camp – Barranco Camp

From the Shira Plateau, we continue to the east up a ridge, passing the junction towards the peak of Kibo. As we continue, our direction changes to the South East towards the Lava Tower, called the “Shark’s Tooth.” Shortly after the tower, we come to the second junction which brings us up to the Arrow Glacier at an altitude of 16,000ft. We now continue down to the Barranco Hut at an altitude of 13,000ft. Here we rest, enjoy dinner, and overnight. Habitat: Semi-desert

Day 4: Barranco Camp – Via Karanga, Barafu Camp

After breakfast, we leave Barranco and continue on a steep ridge passing the Barranco Wall, to the Karanga Valley campsite for a hot lunch. From Karanga, we hit the junction connecting to the Mweka Trail. We continue up to the Barafu Hut. Here we make camp, rest, enjoy dinner, and prepare for the summit day. The two peaks of Mawenzi and Kibo can be seen from this point. Habitat: Alpine desert

Day 5: Barafu Camp – Summit – Mweka Hut

Very early in the morning (midnight to 2am), we continue our way to the summit between the Rebmann and Ratzel glaciers. We'll head in a northwesterly direction and ascend through heavy scree towards Stella Point on the crater rim. This is the most mentally and physically challenging portion of the trek. At Stella Point (18,600 ft), you will stop for a short rest and will be rewarded with the most magnificent sunrise you are ever likely to see (weather permitting).

From Stella Point, you may encounter snow all they way on your 1-hour ascent to the summit. At Uhuru Peak, you have reached the highest point on Mount Kilimanjaro and the continent of Africa. Faster hikers will see the sunrise from the summit.

From the summit, we now make our descent continuing straight down to the Mweka Hut camp site, stopping at Barafu for lunch. Later in the evening at the Mweka camp, we enjoy our last dinner on the mountain and a well-earned sleep. Habitat: Arctic

Day 6: Mweka Camp – Mweka gate – Arusha (Kilimanjaro Airport)

After breakfast, we continue the descent down to the Mweka Park Gate to receive your summit certificates. At lower elevations, it can be wet and muddy. Gaiters and trekking poles will help. A vehicle will meet you and drive you back to Arusha/ Moshi dropped off.
