Kilimanjaro Trek from Shira Camp to Barranco Camp

From the Shira Plateau, we will continue to the east up a ridge, passing the junction towards the peak of Kibo. As we continue, our direction changes to the South East towards the Lava Tower, called the Shark’s Tooth (elevation 4650m/15,250 ft). Shortly after the tower, we will come to the second junction which goes to the Arrow Glacier. We will now continue down to the Barranco Camp. Although you end the day around the same elevation as when you began, this day is very important for acclimatization and will help your body prepare for summit day.

Kilimanjaro Trek from Summit to Mweka Camp

Very early in the morning (midnight to 2:00 am), we will continue our way to the summit between the Rebmann and Ratzel glaciers. You will head in a northwesterly direction and ascend through heavy scree towards Stella Point on the crater rim. This is the most mentally and physically challenging portion of the trek. At Stella Point, you will stop for a short rest and will be rewarded with the most magnificent sunrise you are ever likely to see. Faster hikers may view the sunrise from the summit. From Stella Point, you may encounter snow all the way on your 1-hour ascent to the summit. Once at Uhuru Peak, you'll have reached the highest point on Mount Kilimanjaro and the continent of Africa. From the summit, we will begin our descent by continuing straight down to the Mweka Camp, stopping at Barafu for lunch.
