Tour Guide

The Lemosho route is one of the best routes for acclimatization. It is less used and a beautiful way up to the Shira Plateau. The route is one of the few where groups may be accompanied on the first day by an armed ranger, as the forests around the Lemosho Glades are inhabited by buffalo, elephants, and other wildlife.

The minimum duration for the Lemosho route is eight days. However, we strongly recommend hiking the road in 7 days. The additional 7th day will give your body more time to acclimatize, reducing the effects of altitude sickness and giving you more time to rest before attempting the summit.
