Safari summary
This 7-day (6-night) hike offers a gradual ascent with hut accommodations, making it a popular choice for trekkers seeking a structured and comfortable climb. The Marangu Route, known as the "Coca-Cola Route," is the most accessible and well-established path to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. Starting from the Marangu Gate, the trek passes through lush rainforests, alpine meadows, and rugged volcanic landscapes. Overnight stays in Mandara, Horombo, and Kibo Huts provide a steady acclimatization process. The final summit push to Uhuru Peak begins before dawn, rewarding climbers with breathtaking sunrise views from Africa’s highest point. The descent follows the same route, offering a smooth and scenic return journey
