Biking up Kilimanjaro is a new concept and to date only few mountain bikers have ever managed to successfully bike up Kilimanjaro on mountain bikes.
We have two routes which are suitable for Mountain cycling to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Marangu Route and Rongai Route. This due to Many favour to these route because are considered to be the easiest path on the mountain, due to its more gradual slope.
You will have one guide cycling with you at all times, so you can cycle up and down the mountain, or combine cycling with hiking, whichever you prefer. You will each have a porter for your bikes, who will carry them for you when you prefer to hike and an entire team of porters that will carry everything from your rucksack and tent to the food & water supplies for the entire trip.
