You depart the glades of the rainforest and travel up a trail on the wide moorlands until you reach the Horombo camp. Amazing views can be seen from Kibo's top, as well as Mawenzi's Mount Kilimanjaro climb. Look for enormous lobelias and groundsels. You can start to experience the effects of the altitude.

As we continue to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, we cross the last watering hole and reach the Kilimanjaro saddle, which is located between the peaks of Kibo and Mawenzi. Upper heathland is where vegetation first develops, although it soon vanishes into the "moonscape." Dinner, a nap, and summit preparations

The hiker(s) begin the ascent to the summit very early in the morning (between midnight and two in the morning) on steep, heavy scree or snow up to Gilman's Point, which is positioned on the crater flange. Moving forward, we now hike and climb to Uhuru Peak, Africa's highest peak. Everywhere you turn, there are beautiful views. To show your friends and family, hikers can get their photo taken at the peak. From there, we descend to Kibo, where we have lunch and take a break before moving on to the Horombo camping area.

Today our hiking will be long, but it will be mostly downhill. The driver from our firm will transport you up to the hotel once you arrive at the park headquarters at Marangu Gate, and you can pick up our certificate, which proves our success, there.
