Additional Information
The Shira Route is a less frequented path on Mt. Kilimanjaro, commencing near Shira Ridge. This route originates from the mountain’s western flank and closely resembles the Lemosho Route. While Shira is admired for its aesthetic appeal and diverse trail, the high altitude start point of this route may lead climbers to experience symptoms of altitude sickness as early as the initial day.
