The Marangu Route 3 Days Trekking Route is used by nearly 50% of all climbers who visit Mount Kilimanjaro and provides comfortable mountain huts with solar power lighting that you will be able to stay in if you wish.

Although the trail is busy, the views of Mount Kilimanjaro and the lands around it are beautiful and as each day of walking progresses through a different climate zone you will enjoy a fantastic experience that very few people will have the opportunity to do. The Marangu Route 3 Days is suitable for beginners or those who are short of time but still wish to experience the beauty of Mount Kilimanjaro and Tanzania. The trip takes 3 days of climbing and 2 overnight stays.
