Starting from the remote northern side of the mountain near the Kenyan border, the Rongai Route is the only trail that approaches Kilimanjaro from the north. It’s known for its quieter paths, offering a peaceful and less crowded alternative to the more popular routes. As you ascend, you’ll experience stunning views of both the Kenyan plains and the rugged landscape of Kilimanjaro, with a gradual climb that helps with acclimatization.

You’ll be accompanied by a professional team of guides, porters, and a cook, who will ensure your safety, comfort, and enjoyment throughout the journey.
