Today your driver will pick you up at the hotel and drive you to the Umbwe Gate to complete the registration formalities. Your Kilimanjaro climb begins through a dense rainforest where you can hear and see different types of animals. As you get close to the Umbwe River the route becomes steeper but you can already see the Kibo peak in the distance whilst admiring the deep valleys around you. The climb ends after 5-7 hours at Umbwe Cave Camp.
