On Mount Kilimanjaro Peak you experience the Northern Arctic Zone

The peak of Mount Kilimanjaro is simply amazing as is the temperature that you experience. It is essential is to bring clothing for all weather conditions on the mountain. On the peak of the summit of Kilimanjaro, the weather is extremely cold. On the summit night, you will be climbing Kilimanjaro in the dark. It is not that cold in the daytime as the sun is shining, but we suggest you layer your clothing – a down jacket and a wool hat to protect yourself from the cold.

You will be supported by dedicated Kilimanjaro Porters

They assist you in setting up camps, cook, fetch water, take down camp, and clean the campsite. We provide you with sufficient staff on the mountain to assist you in climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.

You will be provided with fresh fruits and vegetables, meat, grains, and snacks while climbing Kilimanjaro.

Kilimanjaro Summit Night is the Toughest

The toughest part of your Kilimanjaro Climb is the summit night. You will be taking short distances during the day with slight elevation gains.
