About Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa and the tallest free-standing volcano in the world.
For this expedition, we take the classic Marangu Route, also known as the “Coca-Cola Route.” It is the oldest and most established trail on Kilimanjaro and the only one that provides hut accommodations in dormitory style.
The first few days are on well-defined trails and relatively easy, while the summit push on the final day is the most challenging part of the climb.
