It is the route we send more climbers up than any other, and quietly, the one we think is the most beautiful. In this episode of The Vertical Sky Journal, we walk you up the Lemosho route, Kilimanjaro's most scenic path to the summit.
In this episode:
- The quiet, remote western start that most climbers never see
- The dramatic crossing of the Shira Plateau
- The famous Barranco Wall, and the climb to Uhuru Peak
- Why Lemosho has one of the highest summit success rates on the mountain
- Why we always recommend the eight day version over the seven
Beautiful, remote and brilliantly paced for the summit, Lemosho is our flagship for a reason. Here is what it is really like, and who it suits best.
The Vertical Sky Journal is brought to you by Vertical Sky, an ethical Kilimanjaro climbing company that climbs the mountain the right way, looking after the guides and porters who make every summit possible.
