Overview

The Lemosho route is a top choice for both our team and clients at Mateys Wild Tours due to its distinct advantages. The 7-day itinerary begins at 3,414 meters, allowing more time at altitude with shorter hikes in the first two days. This gradual approach helps your body adjust to the elevation, leading to higher success rates for reaching the summit.

This stretch involves several ascents and descents, with some sections proving to be quite challenging. Reaching Lava Tower, where you’ll pause for lunch, is essential for acclimatization. Spending 1–2 hours here helps your body adjust to the higher altitude, even though some discomfort is common at this elevation.

Following your break, you’ll descend to Barranco Camp (3,900 m), where you’ll be greeted by the imposing sight of the Barranco Wall. Despite its steep and intimidating appearance, the path you’ll take the next day is straightforward and manageable.

Following this, you’ll face a more challenging hike to Karanga Camp, characterized by several ascents and descents. Our guides will ensure a pace that suits the group’s needs.

While the technical aspects of the climb are straightforward, the high altitude can make even basic movements challenging. To ensure safety and comfort, each pair of climbers will be assigned a personal guide for close monitoring of their physical and mental state throughout the climb.

After reaching Uhuru Peak, you may choose to visit the nearby glacier before descending back to Barafu Camp. There, you’ll have a 2-hour rest before continuing your descent to Millennium Camp (3,950 m / 12,956 ft).
