Mount Kilimanjaro (Rongai) Trek
Altitude 5895m, Duration 10 days, Grade T3/T4 (grades)
Climb the highest peak in Africa. A land of contrasts and natural wonders
Background
- Climb to the top of Africa
- 7 days on the mountain
- One of the least busy routes
Make no mistake; this is a once in a lifetime experience to savour and enjoy, and remember for years afterwards.
All our Kilimanjaro routes have been carefully chosen both to improve your enjoyment through acclimatisation and also for your safety. We at Adventure Peaks do not believe it is wise to spend any less than 7 days on the mountain for the simple fact that we want our clients to feel good both mentally and physically and to reach their goal – the ‘roof of Africa’. Each route we offer has its own quirks and we encourage you to check our website or contact our experienced staff to help you decide which trip is perfect for you. Yes, every extra day on the mountain costs, but it helps retain our success levels of more than 99% for clients to the true summit of Kilimanjaro, Uhuru Peak – and it will cost a lot more to come back for a second attempt!
All flights are to Kilimanjaro airport avoiding the overland journey to and from Nairobi.
And finally we include ALL PARK FEES in our prices.
The Rongai route is perhaps the easiest and most remote of all the routes up Kilimanjaro, giving the traveller the true feel of an unspoilt wilderness. Approaching the mountain from the north east side, although longer, it has a gentle gradient and shorter daily stages linked with a rest and acclimatisation day at the idyllic Mawenzi Tarn, nestling gracefully beneath dramatic rock spires of Mawenzi, the massif’s second summit. This gives 7 days walking, summiting on the 6th day. Descent is via the Marangu (‘Coca Cola’) route.
*Prices are exclusive of international flights to Kilimanjaro.

The ascent of Mount Meru (4566m) is a four day trip and easily undertaken as an extension prior to either the Rongai or Machame routes. Mount Meru is Kili’s little sister and makes for a superb training and acclimatising trip before the main ascent. You can also expect to see wildlife on the lower slopes and in the Arusha National Park which we pass through after the climb. Fly out the Monday before the main trip. Minimum of 2 people with a local guide. |
