7 days LEMOSHO ROUTE Kilimanjaro Trekking Tour
Are You dreaming of standing on the roof of Africa ?
The lesser-known Lemosho route begins on the western side of Mt Kilimanjaro. The first 2 days of the tour cross the thick rainforest belt which then changes into heath and moorland with many ferns and erics along the way. The small trail sometimes has very steep passages and goes through diverse landscapes. On the third day, the trail joins the Machame route. Compared to the Marangu and the Rongai route, the Lemosho route is more challenging.

Day 3
Big Tree Camp (2,829 m) – Shira Camp 2 (3,900 m)
Today’s long trek starts on a small trail that passes through the rainforest. As one climbs, the forest gradually thins out and the landscape changes into heath and moorland where plants like erica and lobelia start to dominate the landscape. You will cross the Shira Ridge and after 4 to 5 hours of trekking, you will reach the Shira Camp 1. Here you will stop for lunch, relax a bit and enjoy the fantastic views of Mt Meru and the Rift Valley. For the last part of the climb (approximately 3 hours), you will climb another 250 meters in altitude. The landscape will change again and you will pass giant senecios that can grow to almost 9 meters in height. At Shira Camp 2, you will camp for the night and with a little luck, enjoy the wonderful view of the Kibo peak at sunset.
Breakfast – Lunch – Dinner – Drinks – Hot Coffee and Tea included.
LAKE BURUNGE TENTED LODGE
Po krótkiej porannej odprawie zostaniesz zabrany do Parku Narodowego Tarangire. Park z niekończącą się sawanną drzew, w tym imponującymi baobabami i sezonowymi bagnami, jest także domem dla największych stad słoni w północnej Tanzanii. Oprócz słoni można również zauważyć żyrafy, bawoły, lwy, zebry, gnu i inne rodzaje antylop i gazeli. Po przybyciu do parku przewodnik otworzy dach pojazdu i rozpocznie się oglądanie dzikiej przyrody. Lunch zostanie zjedzony na miejscu piknikowym, a po południu zwiedzisz więcej miejsc w tym niesamowitym i pięknym parku. Późnym popołudniem dotrzesz do Lake Burunge Tented Camp położonego poza parkiem na nocleg.

Day 4
Shira Camp 2 (3,900 m) – Lava Tower (4,637 m) – Barranco Camp (3,976 m)
Today you will climb approximately 700 meters, but you will spend the night at an elevation only slightly higher than the previous night. This will allow your body to acclimatize, as a height of over 4,600 meters will be reached before descending again. In doing so, you will be able to see how your body reacts to such an altitude. The trek begins with a long ascent above the Shira Plateau in the direction of the Lava Tower. The vegetation becomes sparser as the landscape changes to alpine desert. The climb passes through the wide Barranco Valley with its lobelia and giant senecio plants. After 6 to 7 hours walking, you will arrive at the Barranco Camp – perhaps the most beautiful camp on Kilimanjaro.
Breakfast – Lunch – Dinner – Drinks – Hot Coffee and Tea included.

Day 5
Barranco Camp (3,976 m) – Karanga Camp (4,033 m)
Today’s trekking leg has many ascents and descents and shortly after the start, you will tackle the steepest part of the entire route – the Barranco Wall. Every now and then, you may need your hands to hold on as there are no climbing “paths”. Safety is paramount and your guides will assist you whenever necessary. After reaching the top of Barranco Wall, you will walk along the mountain ridge. From here you will have fantastic views of the southern glacier of Kibo Peak. You will get to Karanga Camp around lunch time.
Breakfast – Lunch – Dinner – Drinks – Hot Coffee and Tea included.
