The Rongai Route is one of the less crowded trekking routes on Mount Kilimanjaro, offering a unique ascent from the northern side of the mountain near the Kenyan border. The route is renowned for its easier gradient and relatively gentle climb, making it a good option for trekkers who prefer a less challenging and quieter experience. It provides stunning views of the eastern glaciers, wildlife, and the surrounding landscapes, passing through forests, moorland, and alpine desert. The trek usually takes 7 days, allowing for proper acclimatization and a high summit success rate. The ascent is followed by a descent through the Marangu Route, providing climbers with diverse perspectives of the mountain. The Rongai Route is an ideal choice for those seeking a more peaceful Kilimanjaro trek, with moderate difficulty and beautiful, varied scenery.
