Kilimanjaro Tour Overview

The Lemosho is Kilimanjaro’s scenic west-side approach with excellent acclimatization. You’ll cross the wild Shira Plateau, sleep below the dramatic Barranco Wall, and make a steady summit push from Barafu to Uhuru Peak (5,895 m). Extra time at altitude and the “walk high, sleep low” profile make this one of the highest-success routes.

Shira 2 → Lava Tower (acclimatization) → Barranco → Karanga → Barafu → Uhuru Peak → Mweka Camp → Mweka Gate
Trek Types: Private • Small-Group on request • Photographic
Starting Point/End: Moshi or Arusha (hotel pickup/drop-off)
