7-Days Kilimanjaro Climb Via Rongai

Drive to the attractive wooden village of Nale Moru (about 4 hours including a stop to get permits at Marangu). After signing in and preparing the porters, you will begin the hike on a wide path that winds through fields of maize and potatoes before entering pine forest. The track then starts to climb consistently but gently through attractive forest that shelters a variety of wildlife. The forest begins to thin out and the first camp is at the edge of the moorland zone with extensive views over the Kenyan plains. Elevation: 2000m/6560ft to 2650m/8700ft Distance: 6km/4mi Hiking Time: 3-4 hours Habitat: Montane Forest Meals: Lunch and Dinner
