Kilimanjaro Trekking: 9 Days Northern Circuit Route

Scenic Beauty. A Variety of Wildlife with Different Plant Species. Ultimate Summit Experience.
The 9-day Kilimanjaro Northern Circuit path is hailed as one of the premier routes for exploring the majestic Kilimanjaro, offering a panoramic view of nearly 360 degrees of breathtaking landscapes, including the tranquil and less-traveled northern slopes. Its extended duration allows for ample acclimatization time, significantly boosting the chances of reaching the summit successfully. Adventurers seeking an unforgettable experience are highly recommended to opt for the Northern Circuit. Embarking from the western side entails a lengthy drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate, followed by a two-day trek through lush rainforests, reaching notable landmarks like Shira Ridge and the expansive Shira Plateau. The route then winds its way northward, traversing from Moir Hut to Buffalo Camp, ultimately reaching School Hut before the final ascent from the eastern side to the summit. A decent route follows the Mweka trail, completing the exhilarating journey.

Additionally, there is a 10-day variation that offers a unique overnight stay at Crater Camp, available upon special request for private climbs. Situated at an impressive altitude of 18,865 feet, Crater Camp stands as the highest campsite on Mount Kilimanjaro, a mere 475 feet below the summit. This exclusive opportunity is extended to climbers on both the Lemosho and Northern Circuit routes, adding an extra day to the standard itineraries, thereby labeled as the 9 Lemosho Crater Route and the 10-day Northern Crater Route.

The summit ascent from Crater Camp occurs during daylight hours, followed by a stay at the camp for improved acclimatization. Unlike other routes where only guides and clients summit, the entire mountain crew ascends with the expedition equipment, marking a considerable logistical challenge. Consequently, opting for the Crater Camp route incurs additional costs. Nevertheless, the unparalleled experience includes the chance to explore Reusch Crater with its astonishing circular shape and a mesmerizing ash pit measuring 400 feet deep and 1,300 feet wide, a sight rarely witnessed by tourists. This extension of the journey not only provides a unique perspective of Kilimanjaro but also adds an extra layer of adventure to the expedition.
