Trek Preparation: Tips, Hints & Guidelines

Acclimatization is Key

The success of any Kilimanjaro trekking journey depends on proper acclimatization. We strongly recommend choosing a 7-day or 8-day itinerary (like the Lemosho or Northern Circuit) to allow your body sufficient time to adjust to the high altitude. Pole Pole (slowly, slowly) is the mantra!

Essential Gear Checklist

Despite being near the equator, the summit is below freezing. You must pack proper gear. This includes a 4-season sleeping bag, thermal layers, waterproof jackets/trousers, and high-quality hiking boots. Our team will provide a comprehensive gear list upon booking your Kilimanjaro trip.

Mandatory Travel Insurance

For your safety, comprehensive travel insurance that covers emergency medical evacuation up to 6,000 meters is mandatory for all our trekkers. This is a critical guideline that must be followed before arriving in Tanzania for your Christmas climb.

Fitness & Training

While no technical climbing is required, you must be physically fit. We advise a training regimen that includes long-distance hiking, cardio, and leg strength exercises 3-6 months prior to your Kilimanjaro expedition date.
