Kilimanjaro Trekking-6 Days Umbwe Route

This is a very challenging route. It is steep and the ascent is rather quick. Because of this, only the most fit climbers should attempt this route. Along the way you will traverse a long ridge and the scenery is some of the most beautiful you'll find on the mountain.
