African Tour in Seven Days

Safari summary

The Rongai Route is renowned for being one of the easiest paths up Kilimanjaro, featuring a high success rate among climbers. Starting from the northern side of the mountain, just south of the Kenyan border, it offers a less-traveled and peaceful ascent to the summit. As you climb, you’ll enjoy stunning vistas from various viewpoints along the way. The descent via the Marangu Route on the southern side adds another layer of magnificence to your journey, offering different perspectives of the iconic peak.

To reach the Rongai Route, travelers take a scenic drive from Moshi, passing through charming villages and lush coffee plantations. A brief stop at Marangu is required to obtain climbing permits. If you're coming from Amboseli National Park in Kenya, you can access the Rongai Route with a short, two-hour drive, including a border crossing. For this option, make sure to submit passport copies in advance to ensure a smooth start to your adventure.
