Rongai Route One of the most remote and least travelled routes on Mt Kilimanjaro, Rongai Route is quite unique as is the only route commencing from the North of Mt Kilimanjaro making this route a great option for the wet season, as it receives the least rainfall of all routes. Whilst being a reasonably challenging route, its still friendly for beginners. The other appealing fact about this route is that you trekkers descend down the Marangu route on the south side of the mountain giving trekkers the opportunity to experience the mountain from many aspects.
