Hi All,
Just seeking advice in regards with which route is ideal for acclimatization at Kilimanjaro.
I am confused between 3 X Routes a) Lemosho Western Breach Route, b) Lemosho – Barafu Crater Route or Machame Route
I have climbed over 6000mts on several occasions in Nepal, India and South America however this trip ( Oct 2018) has been planned last minute and prior to arriving in Tanzania we will be backpacking across Europe for 3 weeks so this would be towards the end of the trip and I assume I would be exhausted.
I have 9 full days in Tanzania and would depart on day 10.
Looking for suggestions from someone who has knowledge about this / from some one who has already been here.. I have read the Western Breach Route is dangerous and is not recommended? Any thoughts? I am looking to stay for a night a night at crater camp prior to summit which will allow me to break up the long walk to the summit and back to Mweka Gate.
Any advice is appreciated.
