Reisroute
Lemosho is een van de verste routes om de Kilimanjaro te beklimmen en is geliefd om zijn prachtige vergezichten en paden zonder mensenmassa's. Veel wandelaars nemen het alternatieve pad, waardoor het wijd open is. Veel wandelaars nemen het alternatieve pad, waardoor het wijd open ligt. Ondanks de jeugdige vitaliteit is het niet gemakkelijk, maar als je over het majestueuze Shira Plateau loopt en de besneeuwde top ziet oplichten tegen een roze getinte hemel, is elke stap de moeite waard. Na het oversteken van het wilde en ongetemde hart van het plateau kom je bij de Machame Route en heb je de optie om te overnachten in de mooie Karanga Valley of om door te gaan. Er is een optie om de Western Breach te nemen. Hoewel de Western Breach gevaarlijk kan zijn, heb je de kans om te kamperen onder de Arrow Glacier - een plek die bevroren lijkt in de tijd en meer doet denken aan Antarctica dan aan de droge hitte van Afrika. Je hebt ook de kans om te overnachten in de gebobbelde krater, nog zo'n gedenkwaardige stop op deze epische reis. Zoals je kunt zien biedt deze tocht veel variatie en wordt hij beschouwd als een van de mooiste manieren om de top te bereiken.
