Mount Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route – 8 Days Trekking
Overview
The Lemosho Route is ideal for climbers seeking a more remote, scenic, and higher success rate experience. Starting at Londorossi Gate, the route passes through lush rainforest, expansive moorlands, and the dramatic Shira Plateau before joining the Machame Route along the Southern Circuit. This longer itinerary allows for excellent acclimatization, significantly increasing summit success rates.
Trekkers may also encounter wildlife such as buffalo and elephants in the early stages of the climb, making it one of the most unique Kilimanjaro routes. The journey offers diverse landscapes, from dense forest to alpine desert and finally the glacier-covered summit of Uhuru Peak (5,895m).
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be met and transferred to The Maridadi Hotel for overnight accommodation on a bed and breakfast basis. Your professional guide will provide a full briefing, gear check, and assistance with equipment rental.
