6 Days Mount Kilimanjaro Umbwe Route

About this experience

This route is the steepest with the shortest and most direct routes to the Southern Glaciers, Western Breach and Uhuru Peak. It is probably the most scenic, non-technical route on Kilimanjaro. However it is quite taxing, primarily due to the relatively fast ascent to a higher altitude, but the rewards are plentiful. Very steep route best suited to experienced trekkers.
