Itinerary
Day 1: Moshi - Marangu Gate Kilema
Kilimanjaro
Kilema Marangu Gate The transfer to the Marangu gate takes about 45 minutes after you meet your guide. The settlement of Marangu, which is situated on the mountain's lower slopes, is traversed along the route. All hikers must register at the park office once they arrive at the park gate. We travel to the Kilema gate after checking in and registering at the Marangu gate. When you get there, make sure you have everything you need for the day—at the very least, water and a meal.

Day 2: Full Day Horombo
Kilimanjaro
Full Day Horombo You begin your "cycling" through the Alpine desert after breakfast; in certain places, you will be riding on small stones to get to Mawenzi Hut and back to Horombo Hut. Today, 90% of the cycling route is on "Alpine desert vegetation."
HUT
Day 3: Horombo Hut - Kibo Hut
Kilimanjaro
After an early breakfast, meet your guide and start your hike into the Alpine desert habitat. Because the track is so rough and worn down in the first 3 kilometers, cycling will be extremely difficult. After 3 km, the terrain improves to the point where "cycling" is once more practical. The "Saddle," a somewhat level area between the summits of Mawenzi and Kibo, is a great place to cycle. The 7-kilometer stretch leading up to Kibo Hut is challenging.
HUT
Day 4: Horombo Hut - Kibo Hut
Get up early and prepare for departure by packing your duffel bags. After breakfast, meet your guide, and then we continue our ascent to Kibo Hut. You will have to push and carry your bike a lot for the first 3 kilometers before reaching Kibo Hut, which is the final 7 miles. After lunch, we'll try to get some rest. Depending on how you feel, you might hike a piece of the summit path at around 16h00 to get yourself situated for the summit attempt later that night.
HUT
Day 5: Kibo Hut - Summit
Kilimanjaro
At four in the morning, your guides will wake you up to start the zigzag trek up the slope of the long screen. After about two hours, you should reach Hans Meyer's Cave; from this point on, the ascent gets more steeper. A further three hours or so of climbing will bring you to Gilman's Point, where you can pick up your bike from the porters and start riding to Uhuru Peak. After spending some time taking photos there, you will eventually descend to Stella Point.
Day 6 – Back To Moshi.
Kilimanjaro
After breakfast, have one last ride through the alpine and the rain forest to the Kilema gate. From there, you will be taken to the Marangu gate for check-out before being taken to your accommodation in Moshi or Arusha. Our 6-day Kilimanjaro bike tour package came to an end at this point.
