Rongai Route - 7 Days Northern Approach Tour

The Rongai Route climbs Kilimanjaro from the dry, northern side near the Kenyan border—quieter trails, stable weather, and big views of Mawenzi’s jagged peaks. It’s an excellent choice in the shoulder/wet seasons and for trekkers who prefer gradual gradients. You’ll camp most nights, traverse to Kibo Hut for the summit push, then descend via the Marangu side with a final night at Horombo.
