Umbwe route is the steepest and shortest route that has a well-deserved reputation of being the most challenging route on Mount Kilimanjaro. The first two days are extremely steep, muddy and generally making it suitable for well-trained hikers. The rapid ascent on the first day with minimal time for getting used to the altitude is offset by the awe-inspiring, wide-ranging views. Upon reaching Barranco Camp, the path veers to the east and skirts along Kilimanjaro’s southern loop before the climb to the summit from Barafu. We offer an 8-day journey suitable for climbers with advanced high-altitude trekking expertise.
