Itinerary

Scramble up the Barranco Wall and traverse to Karanga Camp (about 4,000 m).
A short climb to Barafu, the high camp (about 4,670 m). Early dinner and rest before the summit night.

FAQs
You are collected from your hotel in Moshi on the morning of Day 1 for the drive to Machame Gate, and returned to Moshi on the afternoon of Day 7 after descending through Mweka Gate.
No climbing experience is needed, but you should be able to walk five to eight hours a day for several days. Altitude, not fitness, is the main challenge; the seven-day route allows time to acclimatise.
Kilimanjaro National Park entry, camping and rescue fees for the seven days are included.
Tanzania National Parks sets the minimum age for a summit attempt at 10 years.
