Kilimanjaro Charity Climb 2024 / 2025
At 5,895 meters above sea level, Mount Kilimanjaro, or simply ‘Kili,’ as it is affectionately known, is the highest peak in Africa and one of the seven summits, the highest peaks on each of the seven continents.
Kilimanjaro Climb
Situated in Tanzania, Kilimanjaro is one of the most accessible high peaks, attracting thousands of climbers from around the globe each year.
The mountain’s unique geography offers climbers a trek through five distinct ecological zones, from the tropical rainforest at the base, through the alpine desert, to Arctic conditions at the summit.
The climb, while physically demanding, doesn’t require technical mountaineering skills. But preparation and acclimatization are key to a successful ascent.
Thus, the Kilimanjaro Climb presents a formidable yet achievable challenge, a soul-stirring adventure that tests limits, fosters camaraderie, and offers an incomparable sense of achievement.

Kilimanjaro Travel FAQs
WHAT IS THE BEST TIME TO CLIMB MOUNT KILIMANJARO?
The Best Time to Climb Mount Kilimanjaro is during the dry seasons, which are from January to mid-March and from June to October. During these months, the weather is typically clearer and trekking conditions are more favourable. However, successful ascents are made throughout the year.
DO I NEED A GUIDE TO CLIMB KILIMANJARO?
Yes, it is mandatory to climb Kilimanjaro with a guide. The Tanzanian government requires all climbers to arrange their trek through a licensed trekking agency, which will provide a guide, porters, and a cook. The guides are experienced, trained in first aid, and familiar with the symptoms of altitude sickness.
WHAT SHOULD I PACK FOR THE CLIMB?
Pack essentials for varying weather conditions: thermal underwear, hiking boots, a raincoat, warm layers, and a sun hat. Also include a headlamp, energy snacks, water bottles, a camera, and spare batteries. Most climbing companies provide tents and cooking equipment. Your tour company will provide a detailed Kilimanjaro Packing List.
PREPARING FOR YOUR KILIMANJARO CLIMB
We highly recommend thorough preparation for your upcoming Kilimanjaro Climbing expedition. Devise and implement a training regimen aimed at enhancing your fitness, strength, and stamina. Before the expedition, consider scaling a few smaller mountains to build experience and confidence. You can explore our compilation of the finest hiking trails in your country for inspiration. If you reside in an urban area, utilizing the Stairmaster at a local gym can aid in developing endurance and strength.
If you anticipate carrying the majority of your equipment, it is beneficial to practice hiking while carrying a backpack loaded with weights – this will significantly enhance the challenge!
