While success rates can vary depending on various factors such as individual fitness levels, weather conditions, and proper acclimatization, the Marangu Route's success rate is often reported to be around 80% to 90%.

There are several reasons why the Marangu Route enjoys a relatively high success rate:

Experienced Guides: Reputable tour companies providing the Marangu Route often employ experienced guides who are well-trained in mountain safety and emergency procedures. These guides play a crucial role in ensuring the safety and success of climbers.

Shorter Duration: The 5-day itinerary is shorter than some other routes, which can be advantageous for climbers who want to reach the summit quickly while maintaining proper acclimatization.

Predictable Route: The Marangu Route follows the same path for the ascent and descent, making it a more predictable and straightforward route. This reduces the chances of getting lost or disoriented.

It's important to note that while the Marangu Route has a relatively high success rate, climbing Kilimanjaro is still a challenging endeavor, and success is not guaranteed.

Additionally, factors like Weather conditions and individual health can influence the success rate.
