Kilimanjaro Climbing – 8 Days Lemosho Route | Kilimanjaro Region | Tanzania

The Lemosho Route is a remote, less commonly used and beautiful way up the mountain. Because of its length, it gives best opportunity for acclimatization. Lemosho starts at Londorossi Gate, below the Shira Plateau, and treks through the rain forest of West Kilimanjaro to Shira 1 Camp. This route traverses the vast Shira Plateau, awarding scenic views. This plateau was actually formed where the first of Kilimanjaro’s volcanoes erupted, and was later filled in from the larger Kibo eruption. On day four of this trek, climbers meet up with the Machame Route around the Lava Tower. From there, hike down into the Barranco Valley, ascend the Great Barranco Wall, and traverse underneath Kilimanjaro’s Southern Ice field. Upon arrival to Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be met and transferred for overnight stay at your hotel. Your head guide will meet you for your briefing, gear check and make an arrangement for you to hire any equipment you may need.
