OVERVIEW
A Breathtaking Adventure
Rongai Route is actually the only path that approaches Kilimanjaro from the north, close to the Kenyan border, is the Rongai way. Despite its growing popularity among climbers, this route still sees few climbers.
Rongai has a gentler incline than the other paths on the mountain. It is the recommended way for those seeking an alternative to the popular Marangu route, as well as those seeking a more secluded trip or climbing during the wet season (the north side receives less precipitation). Rongai is a somewhat demanding route that is highly recommended, especially for people who are new to backpacking.
