  • Day 3 Hike To Shira 1 Camp

      Hike To Shira 1 Camp

      A shorter day that begins by climbing up a steep ridge to reach a small semicircular cliff known as Picnic Rock. There are excellent views of Kibo and the jagged rim of Shira Plateau from here and it is a good rest point too! The trail continues less steeply to reach the Shira Plateau (3840m).

      We camp near Shira Hut (3,840 m.) which has some of the most stunning views on Kilimanjaro. We are close to the huge volcanic cone of Kibo, the spectacular rock formations of Shira Plateau, and look across to Mt. Meru floating on the clouds

  • Day 5 Lava Tower - Barranco Camp
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Lava Tower - Barranco Camp

      A steep climb up the Barranco Wall leads us to an undulating trail on the south-eastern flank of Kibo, with superb vistas of the southern ice fields. The terrain changes to scree, with pockets of lush vegetation in sheltered hollows, and there is only a short distance to Karanga Camp (4,100 m.), the last water point on the approach to Barafu, in a narrow valley. After lunch at Karanga we head down through the Karanga Valley

  • Day 6 Hike To Barafu Camp
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Hike To Barafu Camp

      Following breakfast, we will leave Barranco and ascend a steep ridge up the Barranco Wall (elevation 4250m/13,900ft), passing through the Karanga Valley (elevation 4050m/13,250ft) until we reach the junction that connects with the Mweka Trail. We will then continue to the Barafu Camp, marking the completion of the South Circuit and offering various views of the summit.

  • Day 7 Hike To Summit - Down To Mweka Camp
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Hike To Summit - Down To Mweka Camp

      We will start our ascent by torchlight at about 1 a.m. so that we can be up on the crater rim by sunrise. The steep climb over loose volcanic scree has some well-graded zig-zags and a slow but steady pace will take us to Stella Point (5,735 m.) in about five or six hours.

      We will rest there for a short time to enjoy the sunrise over Mawenzi. Those who are still feeling strong can make the two hour round trip from here along the crater rim to Uhuru Peak (5,896 m.), passing close to the spectacular glaciers and ice cliffs that still occupy most of the summit area.

      The descent to Barafu is surprisingly fast, and after some refreshment, we continue to descend to reach our final campsite (3,100 m.) at the edge of Mweka Forest

  • Day 8 Descend To Mweka Gate, Drive To Moshi
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm
