Things to know
About the Activity
Rongai route 6 days itinerary is the best, this route is termed to be the second easiest route for climbing Kilimanjaro after Marangu. Trekking via this route one can choose between the two starting points, Tanzania side or Kenya side. Rongai route is the only route approaches the summit of Kilimanjaro Africa from the northeast & has a wonderful wilderness setting. Upon request short days Tanzania safari can be added after the climb, please let us know your wishes. The route has fewer crowds than other routes and is recommended for people who don’t want a huge number of climbers in one route. Rongai route is only for ascending and its end merges with Marangu route which is for both ascending & descending. The route is endowed with a lot of caves, which partly saves as overnight accommodation.6 days
