Marangu Route 6 days (28.02. – 05.03.)
Day 5: Kibo Hut (4,700m) to Hans Mayer Point (5,220m) to Horombo Hut (3,700m)
Our guests Natalie & Patrick made it to Hans Meyer apoint (5,220m) where they had to turn back down due to safety reasons – well done on this great achievement. 🔝👏 Thank you to our amazing crew for taking them up and safely back down again!
ℹ️ The summit attempt starts around mid-night to reach Uhuru Peak by sunrise. Passing Hans Meyer Cave (5,220 m), Gilman’s Point (5,681m) on the crater rim and Stella Point (5,730m) the strenuous hike takes climbers to the highest point on the African continent. After enjoying the views on the top, summit crew and climbers hike back to Kibo Hut for a warm meal and some rest, before the descent continues to Horombo Hut.
