The Best Routes to Climb Mount Kilimanjaro
We offer the three most recommended Kilimanjaro routes—Lemosho, Machame, and the Northern Circuit. Each provides unique landscapes, acclimatization opportunities, and summit success rates.
Lemosho Route
The Lemosho Route is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful Kilimanjaro trekking routes. Starting on the western slopes, it crosses the Shira Plateau before joining the Machame Route.
Duration: 8–9 days
Highlights: Stunning views, fewer climbers, excellent success rate
Best for: Trekkers seeking a scenic and less crowded climb
Machame Route (Whiskey Route)
The Machame Route, also called the “Whiskey Route,” is the most popular way to climb Kilimanjaro. Known for its steep sections and diverse landscapes, it offers adventure and challenge in equal measure.
Duration: 7–8 days
Highlights: Diverse scenery, iconic southern ice fields, most popular route
Best for: Adventurous hikers with some trekking experience
Northern Circuit Route
The Northern Circuit is the longest and newest Kilimanjaro route, offering outstanding acclimatization and the highest summit success rate. It loops around the quieter northern slopes for a truly remote experience.
Duration: 9 days
Highlights: Remote, panoramic views, highest success rate
Best for: Trekkers who want a quieter and more gradual climb
Best Time to Trek Mount Kilimanjaro
The best time to climb Kilimanjaro is during the dry seasons:
January to early March
Mid-June to October
These months provide clear skies, warm days, and the best trekking conditions. We recommend avoiding April and November, as heavy rains make trails slippery and more challenging.
How Long Does It Take to Summit Kilimanjaro?
A Kilimanjaro climb typically takes 5 to 10 days, depending on the route and pace. At T-One Tours and Safaris, we recommend a 9-day Kilimanjaro trekking package. This allows enough time for acclimatization, rest, and enjoyment, giving you the best chance to safely reach the summit of Africa’s tallest mountain.
How to Prepare for Your Kilimanjaro Trek
Climbing Kilimanjaro is challenging but achievable with the right preparation. We recommend:
Endurance training – Focus on long hikes with a weighted backpack.
Strength building – Target leg and core strength for uphill and downhill trekking.
Weekend hikes – Practice walking 3–8 hours on varied terrain.
Simulation – Use stairs or treadmill inclines if hills are not available.
Remember, this is not a marathon. It’s about endurance, patience, and consistency in a low-oxygen environment.
