Plan your perfect Kilimanjaro climb - Training and preparation for climbing the mountain Kilimanjaro
The very best way to prepare for Kilimanjaro climbing to high altitude is to climb to high altitude. Although this is difficult for most people, remember that the higher the altitude and the longer the hikes, the better. Whether it be to hike 2,000 feet to the top of the local hill or climbing larger mountains further afield; just being out hiking uphill is the best. This also allows you to get used to your backpack and boots.
Hike on hills and mountains or on a gym trail machine to practice hiking
Increase hiking distance and time of hiking to increase your stability as on the mountain you will have long hiking days.
