About this experience
The Lemosho route is one of our top recommended route due to its low traffic, beautiful scenery and a high summit success rate. The Lemosho route starts off from the west, beginning with a long drive from Arusha to Londorossi Gate. From there, the first two days are spent trekking through the lush rainforest to Shira Plateau. We recommend a minimum of 7 days to attempt this route but 8 days is preferable for better acclimatization and summit success. The Lemosho route joins the Machame route at Shira 2 Camp and then follows the same route through the southern circuit and descending at Mweka Gate.

Incredible experience!
As a thrill seeker, one of my best adventures experience has been the recent 7 days Kilimanjaro trip. A big credit goes to our trip organizer company Wild Roots Safaris & Adventures in helping us accomplish a comfortable and joyful climb. Everything was well organized in terms of communications beforehand, packing advice, gear rental with proactive support from all corners. Since the first contact, the planning and details provided were flawless and we could count on their reassuring experience of supporting countless times in helping climbers reach peak of Kilimanjaro for more than 15 years Special mention really has to go to our outstanding lead guide Lucia and the wonderful guide team of Paolo, Freddy, Happiness. Lucia monitored our conditions daily (oxygen levels, heart rate, appetite, hydration levels) and ensured we all could be as good as possible. Paolo’s wealth of knowledge on flora and how plants have been sustaining for centuries high up on Kilimanjaro made conversations quite enlightening while climbing. Touching hospitality of 20+ camp assistants, toilet pilot and porters; the energy and spirit of this huge team was so inspiring and humbling. They are the ones that really put us on the top of the mountain, and do absolutely everything to make sure that we reach our goal in the best conditions! Thank you Mathew and all the staff at Wild Root Safaris & Adventures. You made it a memorable experience for all of us in our very diverse group! Asante Sana!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much , Shalab and you guys were amazing and hopefully you will be back for a nother long Kilimanjaro trekking , why not taking you on another 8N9D Kilimanjaro trekking and have an experience sleeping in the crater?. Thank you my friend and keep recommending our company in Singapore

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
7 days Lemosho route: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.
How much does 7 days Lemosho route cost?
+
Prices start at $6300 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Arusha usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 7 days Lemosho route take?
+
Plan for about 192 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Arusha is not rushed.
Is 7 days Lemosho route worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Arusha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 7 days Lemosho route?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 7 days Lemosho route suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 192-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 7 days Lemosho route?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Arusha can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Arusha and add a light layer if any part of the 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 7 days Lemosho route start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Arusha within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Arusha?
+
On Outty we rank every Arusha experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour & Kikuletwa Hot Springs, 4 Days Group Camping Safari, 3 Days Serengeti & Ngorongoro Group Camping Safari. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Arusha?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Arusha?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
