6 Day Kilimanjaro Trekking Rongai route + 2 nights hotel stay
Overview
Rongai is the main course beginning the northern incline of Kilimanjaro. However, this piece of the Mountain is seldom visited by climbers, it isn’t less intriguing than the well-known southern and western slants. We prescribe Rongai to every one of the people who like isolated climbing encounters. Getting to the trailhead – Nalemuru Gate – for the most part requires 3-4 hours from Aishi Machame Hotel. Rongai is additionally the main course that passes by Mawenzi, one of the three volcanic cones of Kilimanjaro and the third most noteworthy top in Africa. The way back lies through Marangu, and subsequently you will actually want to see the two sides of the mountain. However, six and seven-day programs are accessible, a more extended choice is suggested for better acclimatization progress.

Why Choose the 6-Day Kilimanjaro Trekking Rongai Route?
1. Quieter and Less Crowded
The Rongai Route is the only trail that approaches Kilimanjaro from the north, near the Kenyan border. Unlike the more popular southern routes, it sees fewer trekkers, giving you a more peaceful, serene experience.
2. Gradual Climb and Higher Success Rate
This route features a gradual ascent, which allows for better acclimatization and increases the chances of reaching the summit. The slow and steady nature of the Rongai Route makes it suitable for climbers with varying levels of experience.
3. Varied and Scenic Landscapes
Trekking the Rongai Route offers diverse landscapes, from lush rainforests to dry, semi-arid terrain, eventually transitioning to the alpine desert and glaciated summit. You get to experience different ecosystems as you ascend.
4. Remote Wilderness
The route is known for its remoteness and wilderness feel. You are likely to encounter more wildlife along this trail, especially in the lower forested sections, and enjoy unobstructed views of the mountain as you ascend.
5. Clearer Weather Conditions
Being on the northern side of Kilimanjaro, the Rongai Route tends to be drier and less affected by rainy weather, which can be an advantage during the rainy season.
6. Unique Descent on the Marangu Route
The Rongai Route ascends from the north but descends via the Marangu Route on the southern side of the mountain. This allows trekkers to experience two distinct sides of Kilimanjaro, offering even more scenic variety.
7. Great for All Levels of Trekkers
With its moderate gradient and relatively manageable trail, the Rongai Route is suitable for both beginner trekkers and more experienced climbers who are seeking a different Kilimanjaro experience.
