3-Day Kilimanjaro Hike from Moshi to Horombo Hut via Marangu

• Meet your tour guide at 8 am at your hotel in Moshi and depart for Marangu Gate. The drive from Moshi to Marangu takes one hour.
• Arrive at Marangu Gate, complete registration, and begin the Kilimanjaro hike.
• Walk along a narrow trail through the rainforest of Kilimanjaro up to Mandara Hut and meet mountain climbers descending from the top.
• Stop for a quick lunch at Mandara Hut and take a short walk to the Maundi Crater.

Dinner and overnight stay at Mandara Hut.

• Embark on the first part of the walk, which is a steep ascent through the forest, but later the path opens out into grassy moorland, and, in clear weather, there are good views of Kibo and Mawenzi peaks.
• Climb through the moorland zone to reach Horombo Hut (3,720m). The site is close to the glaciated dome of Kibo, and there is a sense of being above the clouds.

• Have breakfast and drive back to Moshi from Marangu Gate.
