Along the Marangu route on Kilimanjaro, there is a set of large volcanic rocks with a striped pattern that resembles that of a Zebra known as Mount Kilimanjaro’s Zebra rocks.
Its location from the Horombo huts serves as an ideal acclimatization destination for those whom are on a summit bound trek...

The African Savanah is an ever-evolving road, and within it, our guides offer a creative detour to express complex ideas through simple, vivid imagery...
Some of the stories related to fauna and flora often reflect the high-paced nature of our own lives and communicate experiences that transcend the literal aspects of game viewing.
When we use expressions like “Simba” or “Hakuna Matata” we navigate beyond the confines of our everyday lives, tapping into a shared cultural understanding...

Both 8 day Lemosho groups have successfully completed the Barranco Wall!
The climb is often called the Barranco Breakfast Wall as it is the first thing that you do from Barranco Camp.
The Barranco Wall elevation is 257 meters – it seems higher but it is not!
The trick is to go slowly and make sure of each footing you take. Be deliberate and use all four limbs to scramble up the wall. It is best not to use your trekking poles for this part of your hike as they can often get in your way as you maneuver your way up the Barranco Wall.
Most climbers, however inexperienced, will not struggle with Barranco despite its reputation.
The climb up the Barranco wall takes between 1-2 hours – depending on your fitness level.
At the top of the Barranco Wall the trail continues to Karanga Camp which sits in the Karanga Valley. Here you will finally get a chance to rest and enjoy some lunch. Some people sleep at Karanga Camp and only carry on to the next camp, Barafu, on day five. If you stop for the night at Karanga you are on a seven day route.
Barranco Wall Quick Facts:
1. Only climbers on the Machame, Shira, Lemosho and Umbwe Routes climb the Barranco Wall!
2. It is typically climbed on day four of your hike however, if qn 8 day trek then day five.
3. The Barranco wall elevation is 257 meters.
4. You do not need technical climbing skills to scale the Barranco Wall. Only your Spidy senses😉
5. In climbing terms the Barranco Wall is considered a ‘scramble’.
6. It is best not to use your trekking poles on the Barranco Wall!
