Overview

The Shira Route is one of the less-trodden routes on Mt. Kilimanjaro that starts close Shira Ridge. It begins the western side of the mountain and is practically indistinguishable to the Lemosho Route. In spite of the fact that Shira is considered a beautiful and shifted route, because of the higher rise of the beginning stage, it is conceivable climbers could encounter side effects of elevation disorder as ahead of schedule as the primary day.

The route approaches Mount Kilimanjaro from the west, start with a lengthy drive from Moshi to Shira Ridge. The vehicle sidesteps the rain backwoods zone and the climbing trail starts on Shira Ridge. The Shira route crosses the whole Shira Plateau from west to east in a lovely, moderately level hike. At that point the route crosses underneath Kilimanjaro's Southern Ice Field on a way known as the Southern Circuit before summiting from Barafu. Drop is made by means of the Mweka route.

This route is along these lines prescribe for experienced high-height climbers. We at Popote Africa dependably exhort picking the 8 days Shira route bundle for the most obvious opportunity with regards to acclimatization and achieving the summit.
