time: 5 hours
-
- Habitat:
Montane forest
After breakfast you will be driven to the Umbwe Gate at 1800m,
passing through villages with coffee and banana plantations. On
arrival at the Parks Gate your guide and porters will meet you.
Sign the register before you enter the park for your first step
to accomplishing a life-long dream. The air is thick with
moisture and the path is usually muddy. The route initially
follows a forestry track winding up through the natural rain
forest. It then narrows and steepens to climb the ridge between
the Lonzo and Umbwe rivers, with huge trees surrounding you. The
path offers some spectacular views of deep gorges and if you are
lucky, glimpses of Kilimanjaro towering above you in the
distance. The camp is perched between huge trees and thick
undergrowth,
-
- Day 3: Bivouac (first) camp
(2940m) - Barranco camp (3950m)
Hiking time: 6 hours | Habitat: Montane forest & Moorlands
Shortly after leaving the camp, the forest starts thinning and
is replaced by rockier terrain, sparser undergrowth and
straggly, moss-covered trees. The path continues along a narrow,
but spectacular ridge. As you gain higher altitude, catch
glimpses of Kilimanjaro rising majestically ahead of you -
etched against the blue sky. The path flattens as you approach
Barranco Valley. From the Umbwe ridge the route descends
slightly to the Barranco camp. The camp is situated in the
valley below the Breach and Great Barranco Wall, which should
provide you with a memorable sunset while your dinner is being
prepared
-
- Day 4:
Barranco camp (3950m) - Lava Tower (4630m) - Arrow Glacier Camp
(4800m)
Habitat: Moorland/Semi desert
After breakfast you will start your hike towards Lava Tower, a
famous landmark on Kilimanjaro. The path is steep and rocky,
with views of Mt. Meru, Kilimanjaro's little sister, punching
her peak through the clouds. From Lava Tower you turn towards
the Western Breach, a steep climb to Arrow Glacier camp (4800m).
This is taxing and symptoms of altitude sickness might become
noticeable. The campsite is spectacular. Vegetation has now all
but disappeared, leaving only rock and scree in varying shades
of brown and black. The campsite is very cold and you need to be
prepared
-
- Day 5:
Arrow Glacier (4800m) - Crater (5700m)
Hiking time: 5 hours | Distance: About 15 km's | Habitat: Semi
desert/ Snowfields
From the Arrow Glacier camp steep scree and rocky outcrops
requiring a scramble lead up the Western Breach to the crater
floor (5700m). This day will be the toughest challenge by far.
After snowfalls the route can become icy and in these conditions
an ice axe or ski stick may be required. When reaching the
crater rim, you will be astonished by the view of snow and
glaciers. Visible to you left is the Northern Ice fields of
Kilimanjaro with the Furtwangler Glacier in front of you. Walk
past this glacier to the Crater camp, situated at the crater
rim. If time permits, you can climb to the Ash Pit (1 ˝ hour).
The Ash Pit is 340m across, 120m deep and is one of the most
perfect-formed examples in the world. The campsite is very cold
as snow might occur. Be one of a fortunate few to spend a night
in the inner crater of Kilimanjaro
-
- Day 6: SUMMIT ATTEMPT,
Crater (5700m) - Uhuru Peak (5895m) - Mweka (3100m)
Hiking time: 2 hours to reach Uhuru Peak | 7/8 hours to descend
to Mweka | Habitat: Stone scree and ice-capped summit
rock climb Umbwe routeYou will rise around 04:00, and after some
tea and biscuits you shuffle off into the early morning
darkness. From the crater floor you will probably encounter snow
all the way on your 2-hour ascent to Uhuru Peak. Time spent on
the summit will depend on the weather conditions. Do not stop
here for too long, as it will be extremely difficult to start
again due to cold and fatigue. Enjoy your accomplishment and a
day to remember for the rest of your live. The walk to Barafu
camp from the summit, takes about 3 hours. Here you will have a
well earned but short rest, before heading down to Millennium
camp (3100m). The route is not difficult and will take you down
the rock and scree path into the moorland and eventually into
the forest. The camp is situated in the upper forest and mist or
rain can be expected in the late afternoon. Dinner and washing
water will be provided as well as drinking water
-
- Day 7:
Mweka camp (3100m) - Mweka Gate (1980m)
Hiking time: 3 hours | Distance: About 15 km's | Habitat: Forest
After an early and well-deserved breakfast, it is a 5-hour,
scenic hike back to the Park gate. At Mweka gate you sign your
name and details in a register. This is also where successful
climbers receive their summit certificates. Those climbers who
reached Stella Point (5685m) are issued with green certificates
and those who reached Uhuru Peak (5895m) receive gold
certificates. From the Mweka Gate you will continue down into
the Mweka village, normally a muddy 3 km (1 hour) hike. In the
Mweka village you will be served a delicious hot lunch!! You
will then drive back to Moshi for a long overdue hot shower and
celebrations!! Overnight at Keys Annex Hotel
