<h2>The Malan Route is also known as the "Tourist Route" and the "Coca-Cola Route". This is because Marangu is the most popular route on the mountain and is therefore considered the most crowded route, and this route is one of the only ones that offers sleeping huts and drinks such as Coca-Cola along the way.</h2><h2>Mandara and Kibo Huts each have 60 bunk beds, and Horombo Hut has 120 bunk beds. Guests are provided with mattresses and pillows, but sleeping bags are still required. The huts have a communal dining room and basic restrooms, ranging from flush toilets and running water in the lower hut to long-drip toilets and buckets in the Kibo Hut.</h2><h2>Many people like Malan because it is considered the easiest road on the mountain due to its gradual slope and direct road. However, the route's short summit time makes altitude acclimation difficult. The route approaches Kilimanjaro from the southeast. Unfortunately, Marangu is not as scenic as the other routes as the ascent and descent follow the same path.</h2><h2>We also have a 5-day Coca-Cola route for you to choose from. In addition, our adventure tours also provide a comprehensive range of Kilimanjaro Whiskey Route, Longgai Route, Lemosau Route, Umbowei Route, and Sinsin-Simei Route Northern Loop. Private climb.</h2><p></p><h2><br></h2><h2>Lenge altitude profile</h2><h2>Schematic showing a data plot for a six-day Coke route. On a 6-day trek, climbers spend extra acclimatization time on the third day at Horombo Hut to Mawenzi Ridge before continuing on the 6-day journey.</h2><p><br></p><h1><strong></strong></h1><p><br></p><h2><strong>Other hiking routes</strong></h2><h2><strong>Marangu line</strong></h2><p>The most classic: Marangu (Coca-Cola) Marangu Line</p><p>Recommended number of climbing days: 7 days</p><p>The Marangu Line, also known as the Coca-Cola Line, is the most classic route to the summit of Kilimanjaro. As you can roughly guess from the name Coca-Cola Line, this is a very easy route. Among the seven climbing routes, the Coca-Cola Route is the only one with resting spots along the way, and there are cabins available for rent at the resting spots.</p><p>However, the success rate of Coca-Cola Line summit is not high! Only about 50%. The reason is that the first 4 days of this route are very easy, but the difficulty increases sharply on the last day. Many people will suffer from altitude sickness, and finally have to regretfully leave the course just one step away from success.</p><p>Classic level: five stars</p><p>Difficulty: three stars</p><p>Scenery: three stars</p><p>Newbie friendliness: five stars</p><h2><strong>Machame line</strong></h2><p>Machame (Whiskey) Machame Line</p><p>Recommended number of climbing days: 7 days</p><p>The Matcham Line is currently a popular mountain climbing route, also known as the "Whiskey Line". This line is like whiskey, slightly spicy, but not difficult to drink. After one glass, it will have a long aftertaste.</p><p>Compared with the "Coca-Cola" route, the "Whiskey" route is longer and steeper, and takes an extra day to climb. Generally speaking, this line is suitable for people with some hiking and hiking experience to climb. If you think the Coca-Cola Line is too difficult, you can try this route.</p><p>The best thing about the Whiskey Route is that the change from tropical rainforest to plateau is more intuitive. At the same time, although the downhill route on the fourth day is a bit longer, it will help climbers fully adapt to the plateau climate and avoid severe altitude sickness on the last day.</p><p>Classic level: four stars</p><p>Difficulty: four stars</p><p>Scenery: five stars</p><p>Newbie friendliness: four stars</p><p>Is it suitable to climb during the rainy season: Not suitable</p><h2><strong>Lemosho line</strong></h2><p>Lemosho Line</p><p>Recommended climbing days: 8 days</p><p>The scenery on the Lemosau line is the most beautiful of all the lines. Starting from the west side of Mount Kilimanjaro, the first two days of the journey are spent in the tropical rain forest of Sala Peak; then the altitude gradually becomes higher and the route changes to go up the mountain along the southern foot, where you can enjoy the vast and boundless scenery below the mountain. Tanzanian savannah; finally entering the mountain top stage, the surrounding scenery will turn into white snow, like a fairyland.</p><p>But the difficulty is slightly higher than the Longgai Route, and about the same as the Whiskey Route. Generally speaking, it takes 8 days to climb the Lemosau line. Once you have enough time to adapt to the plateau environment, you won’t feel too strenuous when you reach the top. It is the sinful love of many European and American tourists.</p><p>Classic level: five stars</p><p>Difficulty: four stars</p><p>Scenery: five stars</p><p>Newbie friendliness: five stars</p><h2><strong>Suitable for all ages: Rongai Line</strong></h2><p>The most casual: Rongai Line</p><p>Recommended number of climbing days: 7 days</p><p>This route is slightly less difficult than the Whiskey Route and is a leisure route. The entry point into the mountain is in Kenya, so there are fewer people and the scenery is original.</p><p>In addition, because this route is located at the northern foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, it will not be affected by too much humid airflow from the southern Indian Ocean. Even in the rainy season, this route can enter the mountain.</p><p>Classic level: four stars</p><p>Difficulty: four stars</p><p>Scenery: four stars</p><p>Newbie friendliness: four stars</p><h2><strong>Toughest: Umbwe Line</strong></h2><p>The Ongbei Route is the shortest route to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, and its biggest feature is its steepness! If you want to climb Mount Kilimanjaro from this route, professional equipment, strong physique, strong psychological quality, and rich experience are all indispensable. But even if you take every precaution, you still have to be mentally prepared for failure.</p><p>However, for professional climbers, the challenge is the fun of mountain climbing.</p><h2><strong>Longest: Northern Circuit</strong></h2><p>Longest: Northern Circuit</p><p>Recommended climbing days: 9 days</p><p>The Northern Route is the longest, newest and least-known route on Mount Kilimanjaro. The biggest purpose of opening this route is to enjoy the scenery of Mount Kilimanjaro. Because it will pass through many inaccessible places, you will see scenery that people who take other routes cannot see.</p><p>But this route also requires a long time in the mountains, requiring 9 days. So before choosing this route, you need to think about whether you are willing to spend 9 days in an inaccessible mountain, and whether you have such a long vacation. However, because of this, everyone is given enough time to adapt to the environment on the mountain. On the contrary, the success rate of climbing to the top of this line is extremely high.</p><h2><strong>Preparation before departure</strong></h2><h2><strong>Equipment</strong></h2><p>Everyone in Wall Crack made a detailed list of climbing and prepared accordingly.
