The Marangu Route, often referred to as the “Coca-Cola Route,” is one of the most popular paths to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. Known for its relative ease and well-defined trails, it allows climbers to enjoy the breathtaking landscapes while experiencing the diverse ecosystems of Tanzania. The Marangu Route is also unique in that it offers hut accommodations, making it more comfortable than camping routes.
