    Tips

    February 1, 2020

    The "Coca-Cola Route" Marangu is the easiest of all Kilimanjaro routes, is 69 kilometers long and overcomes 4,410 meters in altitude.
    Marangu is a demanding mountain trekking route of at least five days, on which, compared to other routes, the percentage of mountain tourists gives up - not least because the Marangu route is often underestimated.
    It is therefore absolutely advisable to take an acclimatization day (6-day route) at Horombo Hut (3,725 m). B. during the day to visit the Zebra Rocks (approx. 4,000 m).
    The Marangu route, like all other routes, should be tackled with the necessary respect and proper preparation training. No matter which route you choose, the altitude remains - and thus the crux of every Kilimanjaro climb. Be sure to walk slowly from day 1 and don't smile at the repetitive “Pole Pole” (slow, slow) of your guide and the passing porters. You know what you're talking about.

      Not the best of huts but adequate for your summit attempt. A bit cramped but this is a very busy mountain.
