Kilimanjaro Climbing Northern Circuit Route
The Northern Circuit Route starts from the west at Londorossi Gate and follows the Lemosho Route at the beginning. After the overpass, the Shira Plateau the path deviates north near Lava Tower, following the longer Kilimanjaro Northern Circuit Route. The route circles over the northern circuit slopes over to the east side of the mountain.
The northern circuit is longer than other Kilimanjaro routes. It gives you more time for acclimatization and also beautiful scenic views. Once you reach Lava Tower, the route heads North West to Moir Hut, circling the mountain clockwise at an altitude of approximately 13,000 feet. This path then intersects with the Rongai route variant at Third Cave, before summiting from School Hut. The Best Time To Climb Kilimanjaro via Northern Circuit Route is in the dry season.
