The Marangu Route, frequently referred to as the ‘Coca Cola’ or ‘tourist’ route, offers the simplest and swiftest ascension to the peak. Uniquely, this route boasts sleeping huts complete with solar lights and cozy beds at every campground.
These cabins are shared, and each bunk is equipped with a foam mattress and pillow.
Both Mandara and Kibo Huts can accommodate 60 climbers, while Horombo Hut has capacity for 120 individuals. The two lower huts include functioning bathrooms with running water. Basic men’s and women’s outhouses are provided at the final camp.
A lively and spirited environment is formed as climbing groups, often consisting of people from diverse nations, take shared meals in the dining huts.
Typically, the journey is completed in 5 days, but an extra day for improved acclimatization may be added. This additional day can be spent either resting at Horombo or scaling the diminutive peak of Mawenzi.
