Kilimanjaro Climb – July 2022

Final Ascent to the Highest Crater in Africa – Kilimanjaro

Kilimanjaro (Kili)

Kilimanjaro is the highest free-standing mountain in the world, of volcanic origin, and the highest peak in Africa, with Uhuru Peak rising to 5,895 meters. It is located in northeastern Tanzania, about 350 km south of the Equator. The mountain is also part of Kilimanjaro National Park, established in 1971.

As the highest peak on the continent at 5,895 m, without technical climbing requirements and with minimal snow in recent years, it attracts a large number of mountaineers, trekkers, and travelers.

The ascent to the summit is essentially a classic trek, with several established routes leading to the top. It is not considered an expedition in the exploratory sense, as all routes are known and clearly defined. Expeditions are typically organized for exploration into unknown regions.

Marangu Route – Kilimanjaro

This year, our climb follows the Marangu Route once again. We lead the ascent based on proper acclimatization principles — “climb high, sleep low” — significantly increasing the success rate.

So far, I have guided six groups to the summit of Kilimanjaro. Out of 81 clients, 78 successfully reached the top. We have climbed twice via the Marangu Route, three times via the Machame Route, and once via the Rongai Route.

This Climb Is Intended For

• Mountaineers and active individuals
• Those who want to summit one of the Seven Summits
• Those who want to climb Africa’s highest peak
• Participants prepared for demanding conditions and high altitude
• Individuals in good physical condition
• Those ready to push their personal limits
• Adventurers willing to step outside their comfort zone
• Travelers who want to experience the exotic landscapes of Africa across multiple climate zones
• Participants guided by experienced leaders
• Those who enjoy exotic and long-distance travel

Kilimanjaro Preparation

Although Kilimanjaro may seem like the easiest of the Seven Summits, it must never be underestimated. Proper preparation is essential. The preparation process evaluates the candidate’s physical ability and predisposition for the Kilimanjaro trek.

To apply for the Kilimanjaro trek, you must first complete a Mountaineering Medical Questionnaire. A licensed UIMLA guide evaluates whether the candidate meets the requirements for the expedition.

Complete the Mountaineering Medical Questionnaire (click here) or contact us at: bojan@sportiputovanja.hr.

If the application is approved, you will receive recommendations for maintaining and improving your fitness level. Two and a half months is sufficient preparation time for someone already in solid condition. It is not sufficient for someone who has not been training.

Training for Kilimanjaro

• 8 training sessions per month (1 hour each). Each session consists of 30 minutes of interval training and 30 minutes of moderate outdoor running.
• 2–3 mountain hikes per month, lasting 7–9 hours each. This equals 4–6 hikes before departure.

During these hikes, candidates will learn how to prevent altitude sickness. Trips are led by a licensed mountain guide with extensive experience in high-altitude expeditions.

Before departure, assistance is available for selecting the appropriate equipment.
