8 - 9 Days
To complete this route, it’s requires 8 to 9 days from the Mchame main gate and allows you to stop in 6 stations up to uhuru peak. We consider this route as a simple, popular route with traffic because with these five stations from Shira Camp follow Lava Tower then Barronco Camp jump to Barafu Camp the most freezing one and finally to Uhuru Peak destination point.
This route gives you a much time to recover in terms of energy once you reach each stop you take a deep rest. Also, this route has its own A.K.A “Whisky”, meanwhile been able to view Mount Kilimanjaro Little brother Mount Meru from far.
