Safari summary
Let's hike Kilimanjaro via Marangu Route and reach the altitude 3720 m. Within this trip we will not reach the summit, so this is an ideal solution for those who dream to experience this majestic mountain without spending a week and reaching the peak. Nevertheless, we'll spend overnight in Horombo Hut - a second camp for the summit climbers, and we'll walk to Maundi Crater, full of a spirit of adventure. 2 days on Kilimanjaro on this wonderful Horombo Hut hike is absolutely an upscale experience.
