Detailed Overview

The Lemosho Route is regarded as one of the prettiest routes on Kilimanjaro. We begin trekking in the thick, fertile rain-forest until we reach the wildflowers and shrubs of the heath ecosystem. Approaching from the west, we cross one of the most beautiful areas on Kilimanjaro, the vast Shira Plateau, before traversing the mountain along the southern circuit. As you cross the Shira plateau on the Lemosho route from east to west, you get an impressive view of the Kibo summit. The Lemosho route is for those with previous backpacking experience. Because of the start and the extra days at low altitude, the Lemosho Route is probably the best trek for acclimatization. In addition, the Lemosho Route connects to the Machame Route after a few days, which increases the success rate even more.
