My team, without which I wouldnt have reached where I wanted for 4 years already. Finally exhausted on the summit. Then soon back down, unfortunately not much time for lounging around, and the conditions dont allow it either. Sunrise at the equator is quite a fast affair. From the third camp there is a really impressive view of the south wall, whose summit is still about 2000 m higher View into the interior of the gigantic crater, approx. 300 m lower Shadow of Kilimanjaro cast on the African plains, Mount Meru and the full moon setting that lit our entire night path On the fifth day we climb to the last camp before the summit push. Kilimanjaro also has windows. Here we encounter unusual trees that grow only on these and some other mountains in the distant surroundings, all at around 4000 m At the end. Glaciers at the summit are still quite large, unfortunately the present path does not run along their base Evening in Shira camp with fantastic colors, Mount Meru (4566 m) in the background, about 80 km away Mount Mawenzi to the east, accessible only to mountaineers, this time much lower. In Barafu camp, 4600 m, we go to sleep around six in the evening. We arrive right at the foot of the southern slope of Mount Kibo (this is one of the three mountains in the Kilimanjaro range) Glaciers. Finally back to the bathroom. Midday the summit of Kilimanjaro often wraps in clouds, thats the reason almost everyone starts to the top in the middle of the night. Well, the equatorial sun above 5000 m above sea level is anything but friendly. The fourth day begins with an ascent over a roughly 300-meter-high wall, the only slightly more technically demanding part of the tour, but not difficult for an average mountaineer. Avrikelj Path to Kredarica from Krma. The same afternoon we descend to the last camp at 3200 m altitude (that means 1300 m ascent and 2700 m descent in one single day) To this hill the path led for long and strenuous 6 and a half hours.
