6 Day Marangu Route Programme

This trail is popularly called the Tourist route or “Coca-Cola” route, this could partly be as a result of the fact that the Marangu is the expensive route, but more so, perhaps the fact that it is possible to do the Marangu route in 5 days, thereby getting to the summit one day earlier than on the Machame route.
This route however offers the visitors the option of spending on extra acclimatization day at Horombo hut. Hut accommodation on the Marangu route forms one of the mains differences, compared to the other routes. All your equipment and supplies are pottered and a chef prepares all your meals.
