We will help you choose the best route for your hike. Whether you are looking for the best scenery, highest success rates, fewer crowds, or a shorter climb
The Lemosho Route is considered to be one of the best routes. It offers excellent acclimatization, spectacular scenery, and lower traffic for the first few days. The route is perfect for hikers seeking the best balance between scenery, comfort, and summit success.
The Machame Route is one of the most scenic and popular routes. Also known as the “Whiskey Route,” it offers stunning landscapes and good acclimatization. The route is ideal for hikers looking for beautiful scenery and good acclimatization.
The Marangu Route is the only route that offers accommdation in huts. Often called the “Coca-Cola Route,” it is ideal for hikers who prefer sleeping in A-frame huts rather than tents. The route can be completed in 5 days, but we strongly recommend 6 days for better acclimatization.
The Rongai Route approaches the mountain from the north next to the Kenya border. It is one of the quieter routes and receives less rainfall than the southern routes. The gradual ascent profile makes it a good option. It is ideal for hikers looking for a less crowded experience.
The Northern Circuit Route is the longest route. Because of more acclimatization days, it is the most successful route. This route circles around the quieter northern slopes , providing spectacular panoramic views. It is ideal for hikers that want the best acclimatization.
Our group tours are ideal for hikers who want costs lower than a private trek. Join a scheduled departure, meet like-minded hikers, lead by an experienced mountain crew.
Each group hike includes experienced guides, quality camping equipment, daily health monitoring, emergency oxygen and delicious meals. The itineraries are designed for better acclimatization and summit success. We also supply a portable toilet on all our group hikes
