The Rongai Route is amongst the most straightforward paths with a considerably high success ratio.
This route commences from the northern part of the mountain, just below the Kenyan border, and is one of the less frequently used routes. On the way back, trekkers descend using the Marangu Route on the mountain’s southern face, offering them varied perspectives of the mountain.
Reaching the trail’s beginning point from Moshi involves approximately a three-hour drive, passing many villages and coffee plantations, also including a stop to register for climbing permits at Marangu.
Access to the Rongai Route is also possible through Amboseli National Park, Kenya, which takes around two hours, including the time spent at the border crossing. Please submit copies of the passports prior to the journey.
