The only route that approaches Kilimanjaro from the quiet northern side, Rongai is remote, gently graded and wonderfully uncrowded. This leisurely 12-day program adds extra acclimatization and post-climb cultural days for the smoothest possible summit.
Airport pick-up, briefing and overnight in Arusha.
Drive around the mountain to the northern side and start through pine forest and farmland.
Steady climb through moorland with views into Kenya's Amboseli plains.
Traverse toward the jagged spires of Mawenzi peak.
Camp beside a mountain lake directly beneath Mawenzi's dramatic cliffs.
Rest and short acclimatization hikes around Mawenzi Tarn.
Cross the lunar 'Saddle' between Mawenzi and Kibo to high camp.
Midnight ascent via Gilman's Point to Uhuru Peak, then descend the Marangu side.
Final descent, summit certificates and transfer to Arusha for a well-earned rest.
Sleep in, swim, browse the craft markets — you earned it.
Gentle celebration hike to a waterfall with a Chagga coffee experience.
Airport transfer and farewell from the Makundi family.
