8 Days Private Kilimanjaro Climb Lemosho Route
8 Days Private Kilimanjaro Climb Lemosho Route
The Lemosho route is considered one of the easier routes on Kilimanjaro, as its longer itinerary allows for better acclimatization. However, hikers will still need to ascend the Barranco Wall and climb steeply on summit night.The 8-day Lemosho climb gives one of the highest success rates, rather than trying to squeeze the climb into 7 days. The extra day allows for a shorter pre-summit day, meaning that you arrive at base camp by lunchtime, fuel up with food, and tuck up in your tent to rest for what will be a tough summit ascent starting at midnight.Experienced and already acclimatised mountaineers may opt for the more difficult 7-day ascent along the Lemosho route.No technical climbing is required, but a good level of fitness is recommended.
