About Mount Kilimanjaro:

Mount Kilimanjaro is an African tallest and world free-standing mountain. People from everywhere the world come to Tanzania to climb Kilimanjaro, hoping to square proudly at Uhuru Point – 19,341 feet high. Crowned in ice, Kilimanjaro may be a spectacular sight to behold. But this view won’t last long. 

The glaciers are melting at an alarming rate thanks to warming and can be completely gone in 50 years. In 2013, an estimated 50,000 tourists climbed Kilimanjaro. the amount has been steadily growing each year. 

What makes Kilimanjaro such a magnetic draw for adventurous folks is that climbing Kilimanjaro doesn’t require technical skills or mountaineering equipment like ice axes, crampons, harnesses and ropes. Kilimanjaro is entirely a walk up the mountain. As long as you’ll put one foot ahead of the opposite, and are in decent fitness, you’ll climb Kilimanjaro. 

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro – The Lemosho Route:

The Lemosho route is considered to be the most effective route on Kilimanjaro. Not too way back, there have been only two main routes wont to climb Kilimanjaro – the Marangu (Coca Cola) route and therefore the Machame (Whiskey) route. 

The Kilimanjaro National Park authority created more trails to climbers to reach the African’s highest peak. This reduced bottlenecks at certain points and also made for a more pleasant experience by reducing crowds. Additionally, these latter trails were more thoughtfully designed to increase acclimatization for the clients by using longer distances, longer times on the mountain and shorter elevation gains.

Lemosho, a comparatively new route, falls into this category. Lemosho is preferred by reputable operators because of its beauty, remoteness and success rate. In short, it maximizes the possibilities that a climber will reach the summit, and luxuriate in the experience overall. The Lemosho route is wiped out as little as six days (five nights) on the mountain.

Access to the trail begins with a protracted drive from Moshi or Arusha to Londorossi Gate. this may take three to four hours. Londorossi Gate is found within the western base of the mountain. Lemosho starts in the lush, fertile rainforest. it’s the primary ecological zone you encounter on Kilimanjaro. The route heads up and across the Shira Plateau, which wont to be Kilimanjaro’s third peak before it collapsed. Then we make our way north to Moir Hut, which is a good acclimatization day because of short hikes than is wiped out the nearby Lent Hills.

We climb the intimidating Barranco Wall so circle along the southern circuit to Karanga and high camp Barafu Hut. The summit attempt is formed from Barafu within the early morning hours, often during the complete moon. this is often the coldest, windiest section of your adventure.

Lemosho route, it is mostly for physically people with some hiking experience. However, we’ve got many consumers who tackle the route as their first real backpacking experience. they are doing fine. 

This is often considered to be the best Lemosho route variation.
