Treks

Climb the mighty Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, along the Machame Route with its diverse landscapes and fantastic views of the surrounding lowlands and ancient glaciers. An amazing trekking safari with the opportunity to reach the top of Africa, to test your will power and mental strength and experience the sense of accomplishment that comes with realising a lifelong dream. The route takes you through lush rainforest, heathland and moorland, semi-desert, stone scree and eventually, the ice-capped peak. A beautiful and challenging 7-day adventure that will take you through a range of emotions, teach you about yourself and help create memories of a time you conquered the mountain.

Take the Marangu route up Mount Kilimanjaro and witness the bright sunrise on Gillman’s Point before summitting Uhuru Peak. The Marangu route is considered to be the easiest path on the mountain, given its gradual slope and direct path. It is the oldest and the most well-established route on the Kilimanjaro, sometimes referred to as the “Coca-Cola” route. This is the only route that offers sleeping huts in dormitory-style. Guests are supplied with mattresses and pillows, but sleeping bags are still required. The huts have communal dining halls, basic wash rooms and toilets. The short time frame of the route makes altitude acclimatization fairly difficult. The route approaches Mount Kilimanjaro from the southeast and is less scenic than other routes because the ascent and descent are along the same path. It is also the most crowded route for that reason.
