Esta versión de 7 días de la ruta Umbwe incluye un día de aclimatación en el Barranco donde los huéspedes podrán caminar y visitar el glaciar Arrow antes de regresar al campamento del Barranco. Es una ruta que la solemos recomendar a gente más preparada y aventurera ya que durante los primeros 2 días es muy empinada. Para aquellos que quieran más desafíos con y a su vez opciones menos multitudinarias, esta será una buena opción.
Descripción
Esta es una excursión de 6 días en el Kilimanjaro que comienza en la puerta de Umbwe y continua por Stella Point. Hay que tener en cuenta que la ruta de Machame se une a la del Valle del Barranco y que por lo tanto se cruzará con más gente por el camino. El ascenso a la cumbre se realizará durante la noche y el descenso se realizará a través de la ruta Mweka.
Destacados
Kilimanjaro: bosque afromontano, valles glaciares y desierto alpino, vistas de Mawenzi, ascenso de Kibo y posibles vistas de la caldera de Kibo y el pozo de cenizas. ¡Glaciares y pico de África!
