Spending an extra acclimatization day on the mountain is highly recommended when climbing Klimanjaro using the Marangu route. It is the oldest, most well established route. Known as the "Coca-Cola" route, the Marangu route is a classic trek on Mount Kilimanjaro. 6 DAYS MARANGU PROGRAM Arrival Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be met and transferred for overnight accommodation. Your head guide will meet you for your briefing, gear check and arrange for you to hire any equipment you may need. DAY 1: Hotel - Kilimanjaro National Park Gate To Mandara Hut After breakfast and briefing, drive to the Kilimanjaro National Park Gate, register and commence the climb. Walk through the rainforest to the Mandara encampment. A side trip to Maundi Crater is a good way to see the surroundings including Northern Tanzania and Kenya. In the rainforest, look for towering Eucalyptus trees, bird life, and Colobus monkeys. • Elevation: 1850m/6070ft to 2720m/8875ft • Distance: 8 km • Hiking Time: 3-4 hours • Accommodation: Mandara Hut • Meals Plan: Lunch & Dinner • Habitat: Montane Forest DAY 2:Mandara Hut To Horombo Hut You leave the glades of the rainforest and follow an ascending path on the open moorlands to the Horombo encampment. Views of Mawenzi and the summit of Kibo are amazing. Look for giant lobelias and grounsels. You may begin to feel the effects of the altitude. • Elevation: 2720 m /8923ft to 3720 m/12,200ft • Distance: 12 km • Hiking Time: 5-6 hours • Accommodation: Horombo Hut • Meals Plan: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner • Habitat: Heathland DAY 3: Horombo Hut To Mawenzi Ridge To Horombo Hut Your third day on the mountain can be split into two parts: a climb to Mawenzi Ridge, followed by a return to Horombo Hut. The reason for this is that it’s in keeping with the ‘climb high, sleep low’ strategy which helps your body to acclimatize properly to the increased elevation. This part of the day’s trek sees you climb from Horombo Hut up into the heath zone of Kilimanjaro. The turning point of the climb comes when you reach the horseshoe-shaped Mawenzi ridge. When you reach Mawenzi ridge you spend some time there taking in the breathtaking views before heading back down to Horombo Hut for another night. As already mentioned, climbing high and then sleeping low is an important acclimatisation strategy. • Elevation:3720 m / 12,200ft • Distance: 4 km • Hiking Time: 3 hours • Accommodation: Horombo Hut • Meals Plan: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner • Habitat: Healthland DAY 4: Horombo Hut To Kibo Hut Today you traverse the so-called Saddle, a five-mile stretch of rubble and emptiness that connects the craters of Mawenzi and Kibo.

The route ascends northwest into the dark night. Within about six hours you reach Stella Point and enjoy the sunrise. After that, you trek for about another hour on a snow-covered trail to reach Uhuru Peak at 5,895 m (19,341 ft) at the very top of Africa!
