About Mount Kilimanjaro National Park

Before you Start on your trekking adventure, you will meet with Your Tour guide for an extensive briefing. Route, safety procedures and health issues will be discussed in detail and you have enough time to ask any remaining questions (most of our briefings are carried out at the Lodge or Hotel of Accommodation during your stay in Moshi). Your trekking gear will be inspected to ensure that you have everything you need to be safe and comfortable. If you are missing any gear, you can rent it from our office in Moshi town.

During your climb, you only carry your backpack with essentials such as water for the day’s hike. Our porters will carry all equipment, food and additional luggage (maximum luggage weight per tourist is 15 KG’s).

Our permanent mountain guides will lead the way. They are responsible for your safety and will encourage you and lend a helping hand, but also call the climb off due to weather, altitude sickness or injury, if necessary. Your safety is priority to us. Most of our mountain guides have been part of our team for many years, been up Kilimanjaro hundreds of times and all receive regular training from our Team in Germany and local Trainings as well, so worry out You are in good hands.

Our cooks are miracle workers. With simple gas cookers, they conjure up 3-course feasts, hot drinks and snacks to revive and nourish you when you need it most. Drinking water comes from mountain streams and is boiled before you drink it.

On most routes, you will sleep in high-quality tents. The tents will be pitched and taken down by our team of porters. You can concentrate on getting to the top, one step at a time. When you arrive at camp after a long day’s hike, your tent will already be waiting for you. Our camping gear is imported from Germany and of the highest standard. It is inspected and cleaned regularly by our equipment team in Moshi. WE do provide showers on the camping routes (depending on requests with additional extra costs). When climbing Kilimanjaro on the Marangu Route, you will overnight in mountain huts.
