6 Days Kilimanjaro Climb Marangu Route itinerary
The Marangu route is one of the foremost popular routes to the summit of Kilimanjaro. This 6 Days Kilimanjaro Climb Trekking Marangu Route may be due in part to the Marangu being the least expensive route, but it may also be due to the fact that it is possible to complete the Marangu route in 6 days and reach the summit earlier than the Machame route, which is frequently not always the simplest route due to a shorter period of acclimatization.

Frequently asked questions
(A)HOW DIFFICULT IS THE MARANGU ROUTE?
Although many people are led to believe this is one of the easiest routes, it’s actually considered difficult because of the speed by which you ascend. This is especially true on the 5 day itinerary where many people suffer from lack of acclimatization. The 6 day option is easier, however, a good level of fitness is still required.
(B)WHAT IS THE DISTANCE OF THE MARANGU ROUTE?
The total trekking distance for the Marangu Route is 70km or 43 miles.
(C)WHAT IS THE MARANGU ROUTE SUMMIT SUCCESS RATE?
Because it has one of the shortest itineraries on the mountain, the Marangu Route has the lowest summit success rates. This is mainly due to unprofessional local operators taking people up the mountain on short 5 day itineraries. Because of this, the 5 day average success rate is under 50%! Here at Kandoo we only take the 6 day option which means that our summit success rate on the Marangu route is over 85%!
(D)WHAT IS THE SCENERY LIKE ON THE MARANGU ROUTE?
The Marangu Route ascends through rainforest, moorlands and alpine areas before finishing in the glacial zone. Whilst the trek is very beautiful, this is the only route in which you descend back down the same trail.
Accommodation and food
The accommodation is in good huts, either dormitory or smaller four bed A-frames. The lower huts have spacious dining rooms, where you will be served meals cooked by your guide. All food and kitchen equipment will be carried by the porters and cooked by an experienced cook. It will be plentiful and wholesome, but may be limited by the circumstances. Beer and soft drinks are available at the huts. Your own supply of chocolate and high energy snacks is a good idea.
Water is available at several points and should be purified before drinking. All water at the huts will be boiled and some provided for drinking the next day. A comforting tip is to fill your bottle in the evening with boiled water for the next day, and to use it as a hot water bottle overnight. There are water points between the huts – check with your guide.
