On the mountain
How a Kilimanjaro climb works
Pole pole, slowly slowly, all the way to the top.
Arrive and prepare
A briefing and gear check before the climb begins.
Climb in stages
Daily hikes between camps or huts as you gain altitude.
Summit night
A midnight start to reach Uhuru Peak around sunrise.
Descend and celebrate
Walk down to the gate and collect your summit certificate.
Before you climb
Preparation makes all the difference.
Fitness
Train with long hikes in the months before. Stamina matters more than speed.
Altitude
Choose a longer route if you can. Extra days help acclimatisation and summit success.
Gear
Warm layers, a good sleeping bag and broken-in boots. Each climb page has a checklist.
When to go
January to early March and June to October are the main climbing seasons.
