The Northern Circuit is the longest and newest route on Mount Kilimanjaro, offering an exceptional trekking experience with outstanding acclimatization opportunities and stunning views of Kilimanjaro’s northern slopes. With a limited number of climbers on the trail, it remains a less-crowded, more serene route, ideal for those seeking a remote wilderness adventure.

Typically completed in 8 to 9 days, the Northern Circuit has one of the highest summit success rates due to its gradual ascent and extended time for acclimatization. For those looking for an even more unique adventure, a 10-day option with a visit to Crater Camp is available, offering a truly immersive experience on Africa’s highest volcano. This route is perfect for trekkers who enjoy long, peaceful treks and wish to explore the less-traveled, pristine landscapes of Kilimanjaro.
