Arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), where an Evya Adventures representative will meet you and transfer you to your hotel. Enjoy a comfortable stay with modern amenities including hot water, Wi-Fi, and a swimming pool. In the evening, attend a pre-climb briefing with the Evya Adventures team to go over the trek details and safety guidelines. Note: Check-in starts at 2:00 PM. To avoid extra transfer costs, it’s recommended to synchronize group arrival times.

After breakfast, meet your guide and mountain crew for a short briefing, then drive to Kilimanjaro National Park’s northern entrance — Nalemuru Gate (2,020 m). Complete registration and begin trekking through lush coniferous forest toward Simba Camp (2,671 m). The gentle ascent provides your first taste of Kilimanjaro’s high-altitude environment. Upon arrival, your camp will already be prepared by the Evya Adventures team. Rest and enjoy a warm dinner as you begin acclimatizing to the altitude. Trekking Time: 3–4 hours Distance: 8 km (4.9 miles)

After an early breakfast, continue your trek up Kilimanjaro’s northern slopes to Kikilewa Camp (3,630 m). This leg is more challenging than the previous day, but rewards you with stunning views of Kibo Volcano if the weather is clear. Once at camp, enjoy lunch and take time to rest and recover. Trekking Time: 5–6 hours Distance: 10 km (6.2 miles)

Begin the day with breakfast before trekking to Mawenzi Tarn Camp (4,315 m), located beneath the dramatic spires of Mawenzi Volcano. After lunch and a short rest, embark on a light acclimatization hike toward Mawenzi Volcano before returning to camp for dinner. These acclimatization hikes are crucial for success on Kilimanjaro and help reduce altitude-related discomfort. Trekking Time: 4–5 hours Distance: 6 km (3.7 miles) Acclimatization Hike: 1–2 hours; 2 km (1.2 miles); elevation gain of 200 m

Continue trekking toward Kibo Hut Camp (4,720 m) across a rocky, semi-desert landscape. The trail is steady, giving your body time to adapt to the thinner air. Upon reaching camp, rest early and hydrate well — your summit attempt begins later that night. Trekking Time: 5–6 hours Distance: 9 km (5.5 miles)

Start your summit attempt around midnight. Trek under the starlit sky from Kibo Hut to Uhuru Peak (5,895 m), the highest point in Africa. The climb is demanding but immensely rewarding, offering breathtaking sunrise views from the summit. After celebrating your achievement, descend to Kibo Hut for rest, then continue to Horombo Camp (3,720 m) for the night. Trekking Time: 12–14 hours Distance: 21 km (13 miles)

Enjoy a warm breakfast before your final descent through lush rainforest to Marangu Gate (1,970 m). Celebrate your success with your guides and crew, sign the guestbook, and receive your commemorative certificate. You’ll then be transferred back to your hotel for a well-earned rest. Trekking Time: 5–6 hours Distance: 18 km (11.1 miles)

Relax at the hotel before your airport transfer. Check-out is at 11:00 AM, with late check-out available for evening flights upon request.
