Kilimanjaro Tour Overview

(11 Days Total: Arrival + 9 Days Trekking + Departure)
Start/End Point: Arusha / Moshi
Route: Lemosho Gate – Shira Plateau – Northern Circuit – Uhuru Peak – Mweka Gate

The Northern Circuit Route is the longest and most scenic route to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, offering exceptional views, low traffic, and the highest summit success rate. This 9-day trek begins from the Lemosho route and circles the mountain’s northern slopes before summiting via Gilman’s Point and Stella Point. It’s ideal for climbers who want more acclimatization time and to avoid the busier southern paths.
