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. EXTEND YOUR ADVENTURE Continue your journey with our thrilling 5-day Ngorongoro & Serengeti Safari Extension, head out to track mountain gorillas in the forests of Rwanda’s Parc National des Volcans, or relax on the spice-scented isle of Zanzibar.
