An unforgettable 8-day journey to the “Roof of Africa” through the iconic Marangu Route, the only Kilimanjaro trail offering hut accommodations for a more comfortable trekking experience. Known as the “Coca-Cola Route,” this trail combines moderate difficulty with breathtaking landscapes, making it ideal for climbers seeking an accessible yet rewarding adventure.

Day 1: Arrival in Kilimanjaro, Tanzania
Arrive at Kilimanjaro where you will meet your guide whom will welcome and escort you to your hotel. Briefing and advice on what to wear, pack, and other important tips to make your climb as comfortable as possible will be provided.

Day 2: Moshi to Mandara Hut (2,700m)
In the morning, transit to Marangu Gate and begin your trek through the rainforest, where you may spot colobus monkeys, coffee and banana plantations. After a seven-hour hike, you reach the Mandara huts. In the afternoon, you have the option to go to the Maundi crater, a volcanic crater near the Mandara Huts or you can just rest and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. As this is your first day at this altitude, remember to drink plenty of water!

Day 3: Mandara Hut to Horombo Hut (3,720m)
From Mandara Huts, the landscape slowly changes from cloud forests to grass plains with some heather and other vegetation. The higher you go, the less vegetation can be seen and the more it starts to look like a lunar landscape. The air is also becoming thinner now. A few hours after lunch you can make an acclimatization hike with an ascent of 200 meters and then return to Horombo Huts for dinner and overnight.

Day 4: Acclimatization Day at Horombo Hut
Explore the Mawenzi Ridge as you get to adapt to the altitude and prepare for the hike ahead.

Day 5: Horombo Hut to Kibo Hut (4,700m)
Today your hike leads through a kind of Alpine desert to a point between the two famous mountain peaks Kibo and Mawenzi. The hike is heavy and takes you through open landscapes with less shelter. You arrive at Kibo camp for lunch, after which you can relax in preparation for the big day ahead!

Day 6: Kibo Hut to Uhuru Peak (5,895m) to Horombo Hut
In the middle of the night, you start your ascent to Uhuru Peak, with your flashlight. The biggest challenge lies in the first part of this climb until you reach Gilman's Point. From here, Uhuru Peak is not far and is relatively easy to reach. Once at the summit, enjoy a beautiful sunrise, After celebrating this achievement, your descent begins through the Kibo Huts Camp down to the Horombo huts for dinner and overnight.

Day 7: Horombo Hut to Marangu Gate
Celebrate your achievement as you trek back through the rainforest. Descend to Marangu gate, the exit of Kilimanjaro National Park. This is a wonderful five to six-hour walk through the beautiful forests of Kilimanjaro. Transfer to your hotel, for a well-deserved rest.
