Climb Kilimanjaro via Marangu Route
5-6 days + 2 nights hotel | From $1,425
Marangu trail is the oldest and most well established trekking route on Mount Kilimanjaro. It
remains extremely popular mainly because it is the only route on the mountain that has hut
accommodation for trekkers.

SLEEPING HUTS
Marangu route does not require overnight camping. It is the only route on Kilimanjaro
with permanent hut accommodation.

EASIEST ROUTE
The gradual ascent, hut accommodation and a day's acclimatization in the middle of
the 6-day Marangu route contribute to make it one of the easiest trails to climb
Kilimanjaro.

CHEAPEST ROUTE
The dormitory style hut accommodation on Marangu route means there are fewer
porters to hire to carry camping equipment. This along with the short route length
makes Marangu the cheapest among all routes.


HIGHLY CROWDED
Being one of the easiest, shortest and cheapest routes on Kilimanjaro makes a lot of
people, especially younger folk gravitate to the Marangu route. It is the busiest trail on
Kilimanjaro.

LESS SCENIC
Because the ascent and descent are done on the same route, the Marangu trail has
comparatively much less scenic variety as the other routes.
