Mount Kilimanjaro climbing rousts
There are six official trekking routes by which to climb Mt Kilimanjaro, namely: Marangu, Rongai, Lemosho,Shira, Umbwe and Machame. Of all the routes, Machame is by far the most scenic albeit steeper route up the mountain, which can be done in six or seven days.
The Rongai is the easiest and least scenic of all camping routes with
the most difficult summit night and the Marangu is also relatively easy,
but accommodation is in shared huts with all other climbers. As a
result, this route tends to be very busy, and ascent and descent routes
are the same.
