KILIMANJARO NATIONAL PARK

Kilimanjaro,by any name, is a metaphor for the compelling beauty of East Africa. When you see it, you understand why. Not only is this the highest peak on the African continent, it is also the tallest free-standing mountain in the world, rising in breathtaking isolation from the surrounding coastal scrubland – elevation around 900 meters – to an imperious 5,895 meters / 19,336 feet. As one of the 7 summits - the highest points of the 7 continents, Kili is a beacon for visitors from around the world. Most climbers reach the crater rim with little more than a walking stick, proper clothing and determination. Certificates are given to those who reach either Stella's or Gilman's points located on the crater rim and for the ones lucky enough to reach Uhuru Peak. But there is so much more to Kili than Uhuru Peak. The ascent of the slopes is a virtual climatic world tour, from the equator to the North Pole in a weeks duration. Apart from the zonations you transverse, the people you will meet on Kili and the memories you will make will last a lifetime. You will probably learn a bit of Swahili and chances are you will learn a song on Kili.

MT KILIMANJARO LEMOSHO ROUTE

The Lemosho Route starts on the western side of Mount Kilimanjaro at the Londorossi Gate. Located just 2 hours from Moshi, Lemosho offers the trekker a sleep low trek high mountaineering code which enables better acclimatization at altitude. On day three the Lemosho Route joins the Machame Route at Lava Tower and down towards Barranco Valley via the Southern Circuit. As with the Machame Route, Lemosho trekkers need to transverse the Barranco Wall and then summit from Barafu Camp. Descent is via the Mweka route
Picture

MT KILIMANJARO MACHAME ROUTE

Machame Route is one of the most popular routes on Kili. The route is very scenic, providing hikers with incredible views and an array of landscapes. The Machame route is difficult as climbers need to be able to ascend the Barranco escarpment on day four and contend with a steep incline up Kibo on summit night. There are no technical climbing skills required. Machame Route offers a trek high, sleep low mountaineering code for acclimatization.
Picture

MT KILIMANJARO MARANGU ROUTE

The Marangu Route is the oldest on Kilimanjaro and is also one of the most popular – mainly because it averages at 8 degrees incline from Gate to Kibo Hut and is the only route on the mountain that has huts provided for hikers. There are 60 bunk beds each at Mandara and Kibo Huts, and 120 bunk beds at Horombo Hut. The Huts come equipped with solar generated lighting, flush toilets and water piped in from a nearby mountain stream. Each hut has 6-8 bunk beds.
The Marangu route can be completed in 6 days, it is recommended that climbers take an extra day to acclimatized at Horombo Hut. The Marangu Route differs from the other routes on Kilimanjaro as the ascent is exactly the same as the descent and therefore there is not as much variety in settings compared to other routes.

MT KILIMANJARO SHIRA ROUTE

Mt. Kilimanjaro - Shira Route The famous Shira Route starts at 3,600 meters and is therefore not ideal for trekkers who have little or no experience of high altitude trekking
Picture

MT KILIMANJARO RONGAI ROUTE

Rongai route ascends Mount Kilimanjaro from the north-eastern side of the mountain, along the border between Tanzania and Kenya. The rongai route retains a sense of unspoiled wilderness.
The Rongai route is the only route that approaches Kilimanjaro from the north. Rongai route is truly one of the more remote and wild trails on the entire mountain. Despite that however, this route offers trekkers plenty of advantages, making it a very appealing option for those looking for a unique experience on Africa’s tallest peak.

MOUNT MERU

Mount Meru is a spectacular volcanic mountain and part of the Arusha National park eco-system. The trek offers dramatic scenes of the volcanic crater and ash cone; opportunity for excellent views of Kilimanjaro in the distant; and also exciting walks among wild animals requiring an armed ranger to keep them at a healthy distance away from you. Large number of crowds are less common and you will pass tropical forest and bushy terrain before sand, volcanic ash and rocks lead the path to the top. Mount Meru is also recommended for optimal acclimatizing before a Kilimanjaro expedition. Reaching ‘Socialist Peak’ at 4566m/14980ft is a fantastic achievement that conquers the 4th highest mountain in Africa while connecting you to nature and yourself.

Safety first Safety comes first when climbing any mountain. Therefore, your experience, personal physiology and health condition must be considered before expedition start. Our Mount Meru Guideline include a complete gear list to help you prepare for a comfortable expedition and will provide more information about safety and the trek.

‘Adventure’ vs. ‘Comfort’ Foot On Kili Tanzania™ offers an ‘Adventure’ style of climb – where you carry your own gear (~15 kg or 33 lbs) – or a ‘Comfort’ style of climb where our porters, cooks and guides make sure you can focus on the trek with quality of experience, great food and minimal physical strain.


Your guide and armed ranger Your designated Foot On Kili Tanzania™ guide is the most qualified person on Mount Meru, professionally trained to make the right decisions and take you safely to the top and back. Your guide works with a hand picked experienced crew consisting of assistant guides, cooks and porters. The armed ranger is mandatory and provided by the National Park according to their regulations.
Porters Porters are the heart and soul of any mountain. There are few experiences as humbling as being passed by porters on a climb. On Mount Meru they carry food, gas, water and equipment to ensure a comfortable climb and increase chances of reaching the top for you. They are certainly among the hardest working men in Tanzania and we make sure they are rewarded properly for their efforts.

Route
​Momella route starts at Momella gate inside Arusha National Park and is the only official route to the summit today. We recommend 4 days to allow slow pace and more time to enjoy the mountain and the natural settings. But an intense 3-day expedition can also suffice if you are willing to accept the extra physical and mental straining.
Accommodation You will sleep in huts with 2 bunk beds and sanitary facilities are available at each ranger station.

BE THE FIRST
Be one of the first bikers on top of the highest mountain in Africa

TRAVEL SAFE
Led by a certified Tanzanian biking guides team.

Climbing the highest mountain in Africa on foot isn’t challenging enough for you? Have you always wanted to know how it would feel to bike down from 6000m? Then we have the perfect adventure for you. As one of the first travel operators in the world we can get you, in all probability, to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. Is it a biking trip that you can pedal through the whole time? No. Is it an adventure that you will never forget for the rest of your life? OH YES!

Whether you actually reach the summit depends almost exclusively upon one factor: your acclimatization. Our whole itinerary is geared towards one single day, that is to say, summit day. The day after our arrival in Tanzania we will be ready to start the acclimatization. In a total of 5 stages we will make it to Basecamp. We can bike most of the uphill. At some sections we push to save energy. We need to save most of this for the day of the summit when we will have a climb of 1200m in one day. There is more than enough time for this, as we will set off shortly after midnight. As a reward for reaching the summit we have a compulsory souvenir photo in store for you as well as a nearly 5000m descent. You’re guaranteed to be talking about this for a long time afterwards.

Why is this Biking trip more expensive than a trekking trip?

The price depends on different factors. Firstly Kilimanjaro National Park requires everyone to have a cycling permit, which costs 500 USD per person. Secondly, our groups are only small, with a maximum of 10 people. As we are using and transporting mountain bikes we have more personnel employed on site and for the duration of the trip than you would for a normal trek. Besides, our trip will be led by an experienced and certified mountain bike guide.


ITINERARY

Day 1 - 2

Flight to Kilimanjaro International Airport in Tanzania then transfer to the hotel. The second day will be spent preparing for the trip; there will be a briefing, checking that the bikes are ready, and the sorting out of backpacks.
Day 3 - 7

It’s a five-day climb to our Basecamp. Overnight stay in the camp at 2980m above sea level, then afterwards a climb to Horombo, at 3700m above sea level. We’ll have a day of rest at this altitude with only a short climb during the day and then return to camp. We’ll reach the Kibo Hut on the 7th day and will then be at 4700m above sea level. The climbs may be manageable on a bike but sometimes we’ll need to push them.
Day 8

We`ll spend an further day acclimatizing at Kibo hut – climbing up to Hans-Meyer-Cave – whilst mentally and physically preparing ourselves for summit day.
Day 9

The ascent will start shortly after midnight. The bike must be pushed and carried to the summit. We will proceed to the main peak: Uhuru Peak. After this we will be rewarded with a 2200-meter-long descent on gravel and single tracks. We cannot ride for around 100 metres, but for the rest we can use our bikes.
Day 10

Going down is so much easier! Awaiting us is another 2000m of downhill. We will know the route well from our ascent. Dinner and shower at the hotel.
Day 11 - 12

We have the whole day to pack and relax. Transfer to airport, departure is after midnight, arrival on day 16 in the afternoon/evening

FULL MOON KILIMANJARO CLIMBING


Picture

Exploring Mount Kilimanjaro on a Full Moon
The majority of the approach to the summit takes place in darkness because most summit bids begin from high camp at around 2300 to 0100, with the actual start time typically depending on the guide’s evaluation of the group’s performance during the previous several days.

Some climbers like to schedule their summit attempt with the full moon for scenic and atmospheric reasons, as well as to maximize the amount of light available when ascending.

Full Moon Kilimanjaro Climbing
Choosing the Dates

The moon’s position in the sky as you approach the summit from high camp should be able to be seen in advance of the climb, rather than just choosing the closest convenient full moon date.

The following tool can be used in to achieve this. You can enter the dates of your intended climb, check the moon’s phase, and use a simple slider to see the moon’s position and elevation in the sky as you advance through summit night.

USE THE MOON TOOL
Perks of A Full Moon

Some people don’t like climbing at night for two main reasons: it’s colder and you can’t see as well. A third factor that applies to kids is that it can be challenging for them to stay awake when it’s dark.

A new moon is actually much better for viewing stars, so many astronomy enthusiasts will try to time their summit bid with the time when the weather will be clearest and the night will be darkest. However, not everyone making a nighttime summit bid will find it preferable to climb on a full moon.
