Do you fancy following in the footsteps of Team Hancock & Team Pulis?
You too can have the chance to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and raise much needed funds for The Donna Louise Children's Hospice.
Expedition dates: 16th - 24th October 2010.
You will be taking the Marangu Route on this expedition. The Marangu Route is the easiest and shortest route to Kilimanjaro's summit and is know as the "Coca Cola" or "tourist" route. This is the only route on Kilimanjaro with the comforts of solar-powered sleeping huts and comfortable beds at every camp. The huts are communal, and each bunk has a sponge mattress and pillow. There are 60 beds at both Mandara and Kibo Huts and 120 beds at Horombo Hut. Bathrooms and running water are availableat the two lower huts. Basic men's and ladies' latrines are available at the last camp.
All climbing groups, often from several countries around the world, share meals in dining huts providing a jovial and energetic atmosphere. Soft drinks, bottled water and beer may be for sale at the huts.
This route is usually done in 5 days, but we will do it in 6 days for better acclimatisation. We will spend our extra day at Horombo or climbing to a basecamp below Kibo's sub peak Mawenzi.
