Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa, standing at an impressive 5895m high, with its snow peaked summit visible for miles. Located in Tanzania, east Africa, Kilimanjaro is on many people’s bucket lists and is the ultimate goal for many adventurers! Taking on Kilimanjaro is a huge challenge – and one of the biggest achievements you’re likely to ever achieve. But which is the best route to climb Kilimanjaro?

There are seven routes that can be taken to climb the world’s highest free-standing mountain, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. We utilise the Machame and Lemosho routes for ease and altitude sickness mitigation. These two routes also give us the best chance of summiting without issue.
