This is the most challenging and rewarding day of your Kilimanjaro adventure.

You wake around midnight, have a light breakfast, dress warmly, and begin your summit attempt under the stars.

The climb toward Stella Point is slow and demanding. Your guide will maintain a steady pace and closely monitor your condition throughout the ascent.

Around sunrise, you reach Stella Point at approximately 5,739 meters.

From there, you continue along the crater rim toward Uhuru Peak, the highest point in Africa at 5,895 meters.

When you finally reach the summit, take a moment to celebrate this incredible achievement. Enjoy the breathtaking views, take photographs, and experience the unforgettable feeling of standing on the Roof of Africa.

After the summit, you begin your descent toward Barafu Camp for a short rest before continuing down through the mountain vegetation toward Mweka Gate.

At Mweka Gate, you complete the final park procedures and receive your Kilimanjaro summit certificate if you successfully reached the summit.

Your driver will be waiting to transfer you from Mweka Gate to Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO/KIA) for your onward flight.

Meals Plan: Breakfast, Lunch (Packed meal)
