The trail winds through grasslands and offers sightings of giraffes, buffaloes, and other animals. Arrive at Miriakamba Hut (2,514 meters) for dinner and an overnight stay.
After breakfast, continue your ascent through the forest and into the moorland zone. The trail becomes steeper as you approach Saddle Hut (3,570 meters). Upon arrival, you can rest and then take an optional acclimatization hike to Little Meru (3,820 meters) for stunning views of the surrounding area. Return to Saddle Hut for dinner and overnight stay.
Wake up early for a midnight start to your summit attempt. Trek through the darkness, passing Rhino Point (3,800 meters) and Cobra Point (4,350 meters) before reaching Socialist Peak (4,566 meters) at sunrise. Enjoy panoramic views of Kilimanjaro and the surrounding landscape. After celebrating your achievement, descend back to Saddle Hut for a short rest, and then continue down to Momella Gate.

Alex M2024-03-18Fantastic trek Job and his team did fantastic work. From the first moment chatting with him, we knew we were in good hands. His attention to safety and professionalism balanced with his sense of humor and fun personality made our trek to the summit of Kilimanjaro an awesome experience. His team is also excellent, from the level of attention and service of the waiter, Emos to the tasty meals prepared by Samora, to the encouragement, positivity and hard work of all the porters, the attention to detail and camaraderie really shined through during the 6-day Lemosho trek. Job and his team delivered on all promises and exceeded our expectations, taking this from a great experience to something very special and unforgettable. I strongly recommend Job and his team to anyone considering the trek.

Being close to the mountains is always my favourite thing in my life.I climbed kilimanjaro twice so far in 2020 and 2021via machame route. This year i had only 4days off before I catch up with some work.Since it was my birthday month i wanted to spent it in a different way so i came up with 3days challenge to kilimanjaro. I picked up the most Notorious route on Kilimanjaro, UMBWE ROUTE & in the middle of rainy season. So an expert needed to arrange my Mission.Job was my guide his knowledge, good spirit,& positive made me feel like 3days is nothing to meš .Had a great crew 1 cook,and 2 porters these people are truly kilimanjaro warriors.1st day we had to trek/climb from Umbwe cave to barranco camp its about 17km.Its really hard route but i love it the view is amazing. I felt safe ,never had any altitude sickness, no headache I was super okay ,My guide Job was so much concerned especially on our summit day.At 6am I made it to the summit of Kilimandscharo ,what a birthday gift to myself .After that we went all the way down to moshi town.Many thanks to my Crew, glad we did left any behind couldnt have done without them. Looking forward for my next 2days challenge via Umbwe Western breach šŖš¾. Are you planning to summit kilimanjaro?Strongly recommend...
Michael W2022-09-02Amazing tour guides When climbing Kilimanjaro, I was extremely impressed by the level of care and professionalism the guides displayed. They were always ensuring the group was safe and comfortable. On my tour, there were two guides. This was perfect because it allowed our group to split up. For those who wanted to climb quickly went with one guide, and those who are slower with the other. Both guides were extremely friendly and great people. Always wanting to talk, answer questions and get to know you. And when the climb got tough, they were always by our side motivating and pushing the group up the mountain. The guides are Kilimanjaro Mega Expeditions are truly unmatched.
Damian H2022-09-02Best Scenery I've Ever Seen!! For anyone wondering if they should climb Mount Kilimanjaro I have two words for you, DO IT. The scenery is like nothing Iāve ever seen before. My favorite part was waking up in the morning and drinking my coffee while watching the sunrise above the clouds. Climbing Kilimanjaro also gave me an incredible sense of satisfaction. When I finished the climb and reflected on it, I couldnāt believe what I had accomplished. I felt like I could now do anything.
Grape Soda2022-05-16Best experience ever!! Job and his team got us to the summit of Kili back in September, I couldn't recommend him enough!! His knowledge and expertise, as well as his positive attitude ensured that we were safe and in good spirits throughout the entire trek. I even dealt with some health issues along the way, and Job knew exactly how to manage it and get me to a good place mentally and physically to reach the summit. If you climb kili, you have to have Job as your guide!!!
