Safari summary

Welcome to our 7 Days 6 night Kilimanjaro Hiking Tour via Lemosho Route - Lemosho Route is the One of the greatest paths for acclimatization in Kilimanjaro. The trail is less used and offers a great view of the Shira Plateau.

The Lemosho route is one of our favored routes due to its low traffic, beautiful view and a high summit success rate. The Lemosho route begins off from the west, beginning with a long drive from Moshi to Londorossi Gate. The Lemosho trail can be completed in 6 days, however we strongly recommend trekking it in 7 days. The extra day will allow your body to acclimate, decreasing the impacts of altitude sickness and allowing you to relax before trying the summit.
