Marangu Route

Marangu Route, also known as the "Coca-Cola" route, is one of the most popular trekking routes up to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. It is the only route that offers accommodation in huts instead of tents, making it a popular choice for those who prefer more comfort during their climb. The Marangu Route is also known for its gradual ascent, which allows climbers to acclimatize to the altitude slowly. The route takes around five to six days to complete, with the summit day starting at midnight to reach the summit at sunrise.

The route passes through lush rainforest, alpine meadows, and barren lunar landscapes, offering a diverse range of scenery throughout the climb. It also passes through several landmarks, including the Mandara Huts, Horombo Huts, and the Kibo Huts, where climbers can rest and recharge before continuing their ascent.

While the Marangu Route is less challenging than other routes, it is still essential to prepare physically and mentally for the climb. Climbers should also ensure they have the proper equipment and clothing to withstand varying temperatures and weather conditions.

Overall, the Marangu Route offers a fantastic opportunity to climb Africa's highest peak while experiencing the diverse landscapes and unique culture of Tanzania.
