Designed for trekkers looking to join others on an epic journey, our group tours for 2025, 2026, and 2027 are open to solo travelers, couples, and friends eager to conquer Kilimanjaro together.

The Lemosho Route is known for its breathtaking landscapes, gradual acclimatization profile, and fewer crowds compared to other routes. It begins on the western side of the mountain and offers a remote, scenic start through lush rainforest before merging with the Machame Route. Over the span of eight days, trekkers experience a diverse range of ecosystems, from jungle to alpine desert, with every step bringing them closer to the legendary Uhuru Peak.

Why Choose the Lemosho Route for Your Kilimanjaro Climb?

Among all Kilimanjaro climbing routes, Lemosho stands out for its stunning beauty and higher summit success rate. The longer itinerary provides essential acclimatization time, which significantly increases the chance of reaching the summit safely and comfortably.

Highlights of the Lemosho Route include:

• A quiet, scenic approach with fewer crowds.
• Gradual altitude gain over 8 days.
• Diverse landscapes—from rainforest to glaciers.
• Excellent acclimatization opportunities, especially with the Lava Tower day hike.
• High summit success rate (90%+ on 8-day treks).

This route is especially well-suited for group climbs because it allows everyone—regardless of hiking background—to adjust to the altitude at a safe pace. The team atmosphere, shared determination, and encouragement from others can make all the difference when you're pushing toward the summit.
