Travel from Moshi to Marangu Gate for registration before entering the beautiful rainforest. The trail gradually climbs beneath lush vegetation toward Mandara Hut.

Continue upward from Mandara through changing vegetation and open moorland landscapes. As the forest becomes thinner, the mountain scenery becomes broader and more dramatic. Keep your pace comfortable and drink water regularly. Arriving at Horombo Hut marks an important stage of the journey and gives you time to rest before the acclimatization day.

Acclimatization Day at Horombo Hut
Kilimanjaro
Rising: 12,205 ft to 14,160 ft to 12,205 ft | Stretch: 10 km | Hiking time: 3-5 hours. Spend the day improving your altitude adaptation with a walk toward higher elevation before returning to Horombo for the night.

Kilimanjaro
Rising: 12,100 ft / 3,700 m to 15,400 ft / 4,700 m | Stretch: 10 km | Hike time: 6-8 hours | Climatic habitat: Alpine Desert. Leave Horombo and cross the increasingly dry alpine landscape toward Kibo Hut. The vegetation becomes scarce and the terrain feels more exposed as you approach the summit zone.
