1 Day kilimanjaro short trek
ID: GYG745976-1252133
Category:
Country: Tanzania
Duration:
1 days
Description
The short treks are geared for people who like to hike but reaching the summit isn’t a “must do”, and allow one to experience the excitement of hiking on the highest peak on the African continent.
We leave Moshi or Arusha town at about 0630hrs for Marangu Gate. There we complete the required paperwork and head into the incredible Marangu forest, with its thick moss, lichens and endless display of abundant plant life. The route will take us through the rainforest to Mandara Hut (9000ft).
Walk through the rainforest to the encampment. A side trip to Maundi Crater is a good way to see the surroundings including Northern Tanzania and Kenya. In the rain-forest, look for towering Eucalyptus trees, bird life, and Colobus monkeys.
Here we will stop, enjoy lunch and then head back down to the park gate and off to our hotel for a hot shower and some rest.
