Kilimanjaro Summit Guide: Best Time for Sunrise & Glacier Views at 5895M

For five unforgettable days and four magical nights, we conquered the legendary Rongai route, embarking on an epic journey from Kenya to Tanzania that took us from north to south across breathtaking landscapes.

Having explored countless hiking trails around the world, I can confidently say Kilimanjaro stands in a league of its own. The summit day gifted us with a moment of pure magic – watching the golden sunrise paint the equatorial horizon while standing above a swirling sea of clouds. This celestial spectacle was so profoundly beautiful it brought tears to my eyes, etching itself forever in my memory as one of life’s most precious moments.

The mountain’s majestic beauty and the overwhelming sense of achievement made every challenging step completely worthwhile.
