Northern Circuit
Route

The Northern Circuit is the longest route on Kilimanjaro ,a nine day trip initially ascending Lemosho route on the western side of the mountain up onto the Shira Plateau before reaching the lava tower.

It begins in the west at the Londorossi Gate and follows the same path as the Lemosho route for the first two days.

The route circles around the quieter northern slopes to the east side of the mountain.

The eight day trek skips the additional acclimatization day that is usually spent at shira camp 2 and continues straight on to moir camp via lava tower.

The additional time on the mountain means that success rates for Northern Circuit trekkers are relatively high.

What Others Say About Us

I definitely recommend Simba Paka Safaris. We had a great experience at the Maasai Mara with our guide who was extremely knowledgeable and managed to help us see all the animals that we wanted to see. Diana B
I did the 4 day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru safaris. From start to finish, Simba Paka Tours were professional, reactive and great at communicating all facets of the trip. I did the mid range tour and Paul organised my hotels on arrival and departure, transfers and the best tour guide possible. If you do this tour and you get Johnny Jackson as guide, you will be very lucky. Hellen W
Amazing Safari! We did a Safari with Paul and his staff, 5 days in Masai Mara. It was a wonderful experience, that gave us the opportunity to see all the Big Five thanks to the ability of our guide! Paul is very gentle and professional. I recommend it very much for a unique experience. Sabina F
Mr.Paul is a very friendly and just a gentlemen person. We did a 7 day Kenya safari and we not only saw the big 5. Following advice from Paul from Simba paka Safaris we went to the following national parks; Nakuru, Masai mara, Amboseli, and lake Naivasha. Bhagwan S
We did a 7-day Safari from Masai Mara over Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha to Amboseli. First of, our driver/guide Francis was wonderful! He was super engaged, alway attentive and made sure we got the best possible views and pictures. As soon as we asked for something, he immediately made sure it was sorted out. Max F
