The Shira Route is one of Kilimanjaro's most scenic and least crowded approaches. Starting from the Londorossi Gate, it reaches the wide Shira Plateau early, giving dramatic views and excellent acclimatization opportunities.
This route is a scenic western approach to Mount Kilimanjaro that begins at Londorossi Gate and crosses the expansive Shira Plateau. It offers wide landscapes, quieter trails, and strong acclimatization through a gradual traverse toward the southern circuit.
The route is suitable for both well-prepared first-time climbers and experienced trekkers seeking a balanced itinerary. It is ideal for hikers who want scenic landscapes and gradual altitude gain, climbers comfortable with camping and long days, and those seeking a quiet, less-crowded Kilimanjaro experience.
