Marangu route is the most popular and convenient since it can be done in 5-6 days, and you can sleep in the huts, i.e. beds in shelters, but personally it&#8217;s not my favorite route because it is the most crowded and beaten.<br \/>\nRongai route is definitely easier because very gradual, it can be done in 5-6 days as Marangu, you overnight in mobile tents set by the staff. The transfer to the starting point is quite long and for this reason is perhaps the path less travelled.<br \/>\nTake enough time for the trekking\u00a0is the most important thing and spend a full day for acclimatization helps a lot because the real difficulty during the trek on Kilimanjaro is the altitude and avoid altitude sickness after 4000 meters.<\/p>\n<p>The simplest way does not exist, all the routes are not difficult from a technical point of view, it is a long trek. Each route becomes easier if you are in good healthy and well-trained, during the trek you drink a lot and you follow the advice of the guides.
