The 9-day Northern Circuit Route is a captivating and less-traveled hiking trail that circumnavigates the stunning Mount Kilimanjaro. Offering a longer and more gradual ascent, this route is known for its excellent acclimatization profile, which increases your chances of reaching the Uhuru Peak, the highest point in Africa.

Kilimanjaro, catch a sight of Mt. Meru balanced on the clouds from the Shira Plateau before crossing the less-visited northern edges to enjoy wonderful panoramas across the vast Kenyan savannah. Then, reaching the summit from the east in the light of the full moon, experience the marvelous feeling of space generated before standing on the top of Africa. Lastly, a descent to the south covering an almost-circuit of the mountain.
