Kibo Hut
Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania
About This Property
The Experience
Kibo Hut is the highest hut camp on Kilimanjaro's Marangu route, at about 4,700 m at the foot of the Kibo crater wall, across the alpine desert of the Saddle. It is the base for the night summit attempt on both the Marangu and Rongai routes: climbers arrive in the afternoon, eat an early dinner and leave for Gilman's Point and Uhuru Peak around midnight. The dormitory huts hold about 60 bunk beds, with mattresses and pillows provided, and toilets are long drops. Water is limited at this altitude and bottled water is sold.
