Itinerary For The Best 7 days Kilimanjaro Lemosho Route In 2026 - 2027

Day 1: Lemosho Gate (2,100m) – Mti Mkubwa Camp (2,650m)

7 days lemosho route for 2026/2027

Your 7-day Kilimanjaro hiking tours with Tanzania Safari Radar via Lemosho route begins with a morning pickup from Moshi or Arusha, followed by a scenic drive to Lemosho Gate on the western side of Mount Kilimanjaro. After completing park registration, you transfer to the trailhead and start trekking through unspoiled montane rainforest. This remote and wildlife-rich section of the mountain offers a peaceful beginning to your climb. After 3–4 hours of hiking, you arrive at Mti Mkubwa (Big Tree) Camp for dinner and overnight.

Day 2:Mti Mkubwa Camp (2,650m) – Shira 1 Camp (3,610m)

After breakfast, the trail ascends steadily out of the forest into the heath and moorland zone, revealing wide-open views of the Shira Plateau. The vegetation thins as altitude increases, and the temperature becomes cooler. This 5–6 hour trek at day 2 through Lemosho route allows for natural acclimatization as you gain height gradually. You arrive at Shira 1 Camp, where you enjoy dinner and overnight surrounded by dramatic alpine scenery.

Day 3: Shira 1 Camp (3,610m) – Shira 2 Camp (3,850m)

7 days lemosho route for 2026/2027

Day 3 involves a gentle trek across the Shira Plateau, one of the highest plateaus in the world. The relatively short and mostly flat hike is ideal for acclimatization and offers stunning panoramic views of Kibo Peak. After 4–5 hours of Kilimanjaro trekking through Lemosho route at day 3, you reach Shira 2 Camp, where you rest, hydrate, and prepare for higher altitudes. Dinner and overnight at the camp.

Day 4: Shira 2 Camp (3,850m) – Lava Tower (4,630m) – Barranco Camp (3,960m)

7 days lemosho route for 2026/2027

Key acclimatization happens at day 4, you climb gradually toward Lava Tower, reaching approximately 4,630 meters. After lunch and a short rest, you descend into the dramatic Barranco Valley, surrounded by towering cliffs, glaciers, and giant senecios. This “climb high, sleep low” approach greatly improves summit success rates. Through Lemosho route after 6–8 hours of hiking at day 4, you arrive at Barranco Camp, one of the most scenic camps on Kilimanjaro.

Day 5: Barranco Camp (3,960m) – Karanga Camp (4,035m)

7 days lemosho route for 2026/2027

After breakfast, you climb the famous Barranco Wall, a short but thrilling scramble offering spectacular views from the top. The trail then traverses ridges and valleys beneath Kilimanjaro’s southern glaciers. This is a shorter trekking day of about 4–5 hours, providing time for rest and further acclimatization. Dinner and then overnight at Karanga Camp on day 5.

Day 6: Karanga Camp (4,035m) – Barafu Camp (4,673m)

7 days lemosho route for 2026/2027

Following breakfast, you continue your ascent toward Barafu Camp, the final base camp before the summit attempt. The terrain becomes rocky and barren as you enter the alpine desert zone. This 4–6 hour hike is done at a slow, steady pace to conserve energy. Upon arrival, you rest, enjoy an early dinner, and receive a comprehensive summit briefing from our guides before preparing for the midnight climb.

Day 7: Barafu Camp (4,673m) – Uhuru Peak (5,895m) – Mweka Gate (1,640m)

7 days lemosho route for 2026/2027

Around midnight, you begin the final ascent under a star-filled African sky, trekking steadily toward Stella Point (5,756m) on the crater rim. From there, you continue along the rim to Uhuru Peak, the highest point in Africa. After celebrating your achievement and taking photos at the summit, you descend back to Barafu Camp for a short rest before continuing all the way down to Mweka Gate. Upon arrival, you receive your official Kilimanjaro summit certificates and are transferred back to your hotel in Moshi or Arusha, marking the end of your unforgettable 7-day Lemosho Route Kilimanjaro climb with Tanzania Safari Radar.
