The Lemosho route is one of the best routes to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. It has beautiful scenery, few other climbers, and great opportunities to acclimatize to the altitude. The route starts on the western slope of the mountain and takes you through all the climate zones, from alpine meadows to eternal ice. The climb is smooth and gradual, and the success rate is very high.
The Lemosho Route is a relatively easy route to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. It is a beautiful, quiet, and relatively easy route. The first few days of the climb are relatively flat, which gives you time to acclimatize to the altitude. The last few days of the climb are more challenging, as you reach higher altitudes.
The best time to climb Kilimanjaro is during the dry seasons, which are December to mid-March and June to October.
The Lemosho route is considered as one of the easiest routes for Kilimanjaro climbing with longer itinerary allowing better acclimatization. No technical climbing skills are required but a good level of fitness is highly recommended as the hikers need to ascend the Barranco Wall and climb steeply to reach summit.
Arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), where you will meet and greet by Earthbound Expeditions representative, and transfer to the hotel in Moshi. Your Tour leader will meet you at the hotel and brief you about the program and check all the hiking gears.
