Overview

On this trek you will climb the tallest peak in the African Continent, Mt Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho Route. Scenically, Lemosho is the most varied and most beautiful because it begins in the rainforest, crosses the spectacular Shira Plateau and then combines with the Machame route to share its viewpoints around the southern circuit with variety of marvelous views and landscapes opening from lava tower, Barranca Camp and Barafu Camp. Lemosho is less trafficked until it combines with Machame. Lemosho is highly recommended, and it has an abundance of wildlife.
