Kilimanjaro Climb

Join a TeamBelinda KirkComment

At 5,895m, Mt. Kilimanjaro is one of the largest volcanoes ever to break through the Earths crust. Your challenge is to reach its summit.Your trek starts in the rainforests of Lemosho Glades and heads upwards as you acclimatise on Shira Plateau. From here you will catch a glimpse of your goal Kibo, Kilimanjaros main ice-capped peak. You continue via the beautiful Southern Flank, Barranco Wall and Barafu Route.Temperatures drop at night, allowing you to enjoy the crisp cool air under the star-studded African skies. During the days youll rise higher; often looking down on a sea of clouds.Our groups have excellent success rates (96%) for trekkers reaching the summit, but dont underestimate the challenge ahead. Most trekkers will never have experienced a day as tough as this, with 1,000m of ascent and over 2,000m of descent. It is however victory day!For more information or to join:http://www.charitychallenge.com/expedition/1853/Kilimanjaro-Summit-Climb-Lemosho-Route
