About this safari
The 8 Days Lemosho Route Trek is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful and successful routes on Mount Kilimanjaro. Approaching the mountain from the western side, the Lemosho Route offers breathtaking scenery, excellent acclimatization opportunities, and one of the highest summit success rates on Kilimanjaro.
This route takes trekkers through diverse ecological zones, including lush rainforest, heath and moorland, alpine desert, and the arctic summit zone. The extra day on the mountain allows for better acclimatization, making it ideal for climbers seeking a safer and more enjoyable ascent to Uhuru Peak (5,895m), the highest point in Africa.
The 8-day itinerary combines spectacular landscapes, remote wilderness, and an unforgettable summit experience.
