Itinerary
-
Marangu Gate (1,800m/5,905ft) to Mandara Hut (2,743m/9,000ft)
Meet your Tanzanian mountain guide at the agreed-upon location and leave Moshi early for the drive to Marangu Gate, the threshold of magnificent Kilimanjaro. It’s just an hour’s drive, but you’ll be captivated by the countryside.
Register at the Marangu Gate (because your guides don’t want to lose you) and then your adventure will begin.
Cover the ridged narrow trail. As you wander through the rainforest, its lush and misty allures, with the trees adorned with moss will captivate. The canopy overhead is alive with birdsong and strange rustlings.
Come across tired hikers descending from the summit. Give them a high five for the effort.
Continue on the hike to Mandara Hut (three hours).
Stop to rest your legs and have a relishing lunch at the Hut.
Take the short but challenging walk to the Maundi Crater. On a clear day, the views to the east over Taveta and to the northwest to Mawenzi Peak are stunning.
Hike back down to the Marangu Gate where a vehicle will be waiting for you to drive back to Moshi.
Elevation Gain: 915 meters, 3,000 feet.
