Drive from your Lodge to West Kilimanjaro through the forest reserve where you may see some wildlife and Colobus monkeys in the trees. You register at the Londrossi gate and drive into the national park on the 4x4 access road.

Your hike will start at the Morrum barrier at around 3400m. You walk on the Shira Plateu today experiencing what it is like to climb Africa’s highest mountain whilst enjoying the views of the jagged Shira peaks, Kibo cone (the highest peak in Africa), the northern glaciers and you may also see down into the vast plains from the neighboring Amboseli National Park in Kenya. The hike today can cater for various fitness levels and desired altitude experiences.

In the afternoon you head back to the Morrum barrier where your vehicle will be waiting to take you back down to your lodge.
