MT KILIMANJARO Marangu route

Marangu Route (6 days climbing)

This is the oldest and most established route on Mt Kilimanjaro, and this route is the most preferred by climbers as it is the only route on the mountain with huts for climbers.

Trekking the Marangu route gives climbers the ultimate Kilimanjaro climbing challenge while offering you classic views and stunning scenery all the way to the summit, Uhuru.

What sets this route apart is that it is the only route up the mountain that does not allow camping. Climbers will instead sleep in permanent huts.

The huts are equipped with bunk beds, single mattresses and pillows. There are shops where hikers can buy bottled water, sweets and soft drinks, which is why this route has been nicknamed the Coca-Cola route.

This route has a reputation for being an easy climb; this is because it offers a slow but steady rise to each of the daily subcamps. But the final climb to the top can be pretty challenging, with a vertical climb of about 1000 meters, so don't underestimate this trail.

Our main goal is for you to reach the top and feel that classic Mt Kilimanjaro summit experience, so the team at Adventure Global will be with you all the way to give you the necessary help and support you need to successfully summit Africa's highest peak.
