This is a good climbing route for Kilimanjaro with beautiful panoramic landscapes. Throughout the trek, your Altezza guides will share the stories about Tanzania’s nature and local life with you. You will experience fun evenings at the overnight camps and witness unforgettable African sunsets.

Your Lemosho expedition begins at an altitude of 3,500 meters above sea level on the western slope of Kilimanjaro. You will pass through five climatic zones of Kilimanjaro, including equatorial, rainforest, and arctic. It’s like hiking from the hot equator to snowy Antarctica in just a week!

The ascent is quite easy in technical terms; you don't need any special equipment or climbing skills to reach the summit. However, there is not as much time allotted for acclimatization as compared to the seven-day route. Therefore, Altezza Travel recommends the six-day option for those who have pre-acclimatized before climbing Kilimanjaro, either through living at a higher altitude for a significant amount of time or trekking on Mount Meru before attempting Kilimanjaro.

This is an open group adventure which anyone can join. It is likely that there will be travellers from all over the world in this group!
