ROSHNI LODHIA

the Furtwangler Glacier (an optional hike from this camp

brings you right to the rim of Kili’s inner crater). From Crater

Camp, our two-hour summit climb is short, bringing us to

Uhuru Peak (19,340'), Kili’s summit, the roof of Africa. On a

clear day, the sunrise views are surreal, with the vast African

plains spread beneath our feet. A descent along the Mweka

Route brings us back to our lodge for a well-deserved shower

and victory celebration with fellow trekkers. Depart in the

evening of Day 11, or join our post-climb safari extension.
