Day 4: Barranco Camp (3900 m) to Barafu Camp (4640 m)

Just before sunrise, reach Stella Point (5756m), which is an amazing viewpoint at the edge of a giant crater. From here, do one last climb to Uhuru Peak, the highest point in Africa (5,895 meters).

After celebrating at the top, head back down to Barafu Camp for lunch and a well-deserved rest. Then, trek down to Millenium Camp for dinner, where you can relax and reflect on your amazing journey.
