The adventure

Thirteen days. One epic climb and a beach at the end of it. Take on Kilimanjaro's scenic Lemosho Route — threading through forests and moorland before high-alpine deserts open up on the way to Uhuru Peak. Then trade mountain air for ocean breeze as Zanzibar's white-sand beaches deliver the kind of finish that makes the hard work feel very, very worth it.

Arrive at any time.

Begin the Lemosho trail of Mt Kilimanjaro ending for the day at the Mti Mkubwa Campsite.

Climb into the moorland over the Shira ridge and down to the plateau and the Shira 1 Camp.

Travel across the Shira plateau, with time for short acclimatization walks.

Climb through rocky scree to the Lava Tower. Descend into the Great Barranco Valley to acclimatize and camp.

Tackle the Great Barranco Wall up into the alpine desert of the Karanga Valley.
