Lemosho Route (1/7): Drop off (3,500 m/11,483 ft) - Shira 1 Camp (3,510 m/11,515 ft)

Today you start your incredible journey via the Lemosho Route. Your guide picks you up in the morning and takes you on an approximately 4-hour drive to the western entrance of Kilimanjaro National Park (2,200 m). The road leads through a beautiful tropical rainforest after which you arrive at the drop-off point at 3,500 meters where you can admire the beautiful Shira plateau. The walking route to the first camp is flat which allows you to get used to the high altitude.
