The Rongai Route is one of the several paths climbers can take to ascend Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest peak in Africa. This route is known for its gradual slopes and stunning scenery, offering a different experience compared to some of the more popular routes like the Machame and Marangu.
Overall, the Rongai Route offers a unique and rewarding journey to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, appealing to those who prefer a quieter, more gradual approach to the climb. However, climbers should still be prepared for the challenges of high altitude and variable weather conditions.
Today marks your arrival in Tanzania. Upon landing at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be greeted by one of our representatives holding a sign bearing the name of our agency, Affordable International Travel. They will be there to assist you through the arrival process and ensure a smooth transition to your accommodations.
Once you've completed the necessary formalities at the airport, you will be transferred to your hotel where you will check in and have the opportunity to rest after your journey. Take this time to unwind and prepare for the exciting adventures that await you in Tanzania.
Tomorrow, your exploration of this beautiful country will begin in earnest. Get ready for an unforgettable experience filled with breathtaking landscapes, vibrant cultures, and memorable encounters. Welcome to Tanzania!
After breakfast, we'll drive to the Rongai Gate where you'll meet your guide and porters. The hike begins through farmland and pine forest. After registration at the gate, we'll continue ascending to Simba Camp for dinner and overnight camping.
Today's hike takes us through moorland with stunning views of Kibo and the eastern ice fields on the crater rim. We'll reach Second Cave for dinner and overnight camping.
We continue our ascent, passing through the alpine desert zone. The landscape changes as we approach Kikelelwa Camp, where we'll spend the night.
Today's hike takes us across the "Saddle," the barren desert between Mawenzi and Kibo. We'll reach Mawenzi Tarn Camp for dinner and overnight camping.
We begin our final ascent to Kibo Hut, where we'll rest and prepare for the summit push. After dinner, we'll attempt to get some sleep before the midnight summit attempt.
We wake up before midnight for a hot drink and a snack before beginning our summit attempt. The trail takes us up steep scree to Gilman's Point, then on to Uhuru Peak, the highest point in Africa. After celebrating our achievement, we'll descend to Horombo Hut for dinner and overnight stay.
We descend to Marangu Gate where you'll receive your summit certificates. Our vehicles will be waiting to transfer you back to your hotel in Moshi for a well-deserved rest and celebration.
This concludes our Rongai Route 6 Days trek. Departure from Tanzania or continuation with safari extensions can be arranged according to your preference.
