Creative Escapes - Mount Kilimanjaro Climb: A challenge with expert guides

'Ever thought of climbing Kilimanjaro? Creative Escapes together with Custom Safaris has arranged a tour to climb Kilimanjaro from 31 August to 8 September before joining the group to the Masai Mara from 8 -15 September 2012.

This route is guided by experts and is an ideal opportunity to arrive in condition to climb Kilimanjaro and then join the Creative Escapes Mara group for a pampered and well deserved relax in the Masai Mara.

Rongai Route
This remote and less frequently used route is the second easiest route to Kilimanjaro. The approach to the mountain is from the less-forested north side and the descent is by the Marangu Route. There are several variations; the one described below is a longer route taking in Mawenzi Tarn. The second day on this variant is quite long and could be broken up into two days walk allowing more time for acclimatization. The ascent to Uhuru Peak is almost the same as for the Marangu Route from the Kibo Hut. Accommodation on the mountain is in tents (even on descent) which the porters will pitch for you. Clients will need a sleeping bag, warm clothes and walking poles. This is a steep, tough trek within the limits of a fit individual used to walking in mountain areas.
