7 Days Lemosho Route Kilimanjaro Climb Guide

The 7 Days Lemosho Route is one of the most scenic and rewarding routes to reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. Known for its gradual ascent profile and lower traffic, this route offers excellent acclimatization and a higher chance of summit success. It begins on the western side of the mountain at Lemosho Gate and traverses through pristine rainforest, expansive moorlands, alpine desert, and finally, the icy summit of Uhuru Peak.

What sets the Lemosho Route apart is the stunning beauty throughout the trek. From the lush greenery of day one to the panoramic views from Shira Plateau, climbers are treated to dramatic changes in landscapes. The route merges with the Machame Route from Shira Camp onwards and continues through the Lava Tower, Barranco Wall, and finally to Barafu Base Camp before making a midnight summit attempt.

Designed for physically fit individuals, the 7 Days Lemosho Route is ideal for those seeking both adventure and a better chance at reaching the top. The trek follows the “climb high, sleep low” principle, improving your body’s ability to adjust to the high altitude.

Whether you’re climbing solo, with a partner, or in a group, this itinerary is carefully planned to maximize your safety, comfort, and experience. Each night is spent at scenic campsites and guided by experienced professionals, ensuring you’re well taken care of from start to finish.

Join us on this incredible 7-day journey to the roof of Africa and experience one of the world’s most iconic climbs.

habitats, cultural heritage sites, and communities. We actively promote environmental sustainability and social responsibility.
We are not doing cheap Climb, cheap climb means we are doing tourism while exploiting our Porters who are the ones who make Kilimanjaro trek possible for the vast majority of climbers, and who do all the heavy lifting. Fair and ethical treatment of our porters (crew) is one of the important priorities of Eco-Africa Climbing when we do climb. We are proud to be a Partner of the Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (KPAP). Please contact ([email protected]) to confirm this.
KPAP raises public awareness regarding the proper treatment of porters on Kilimanjaro and assists climbing companies with implementing procedures that
ensure fair and ethical treatment of their porters. Every of our climb is audited by KPAP to ensure crewmembers are provided proper salaries, tips procedure, food, equipment and sleeping conditions.
