School Hut - Uhuru Peak - Millennium Camp
Safety being the primary consideration during any summiting attempt, one guide will be nominated per every two climbers. His main responsibility is the monitoring of his designated clients' health on the trek to Uhuru Peak's 5,895 m. The climb, which starts at School Hut's 4,750 m around midnight, though relatively easy technically, poses a challenge due to high altitude. A walk upon the nearest glacier is an option upon successful summiting.
The group then descends to Barafu Camp for a two-hour lunch and rest break. The day ends at Millennium Camp's 3,820 m.
Please keep in mind, that 9/10 accidents occur during descent. Mind your step to avoid potential falls, breaks and damaged toes.
Elevation: from 3,750 m to 5,895 m
Walking Distance: 6 km (10-13 hours)
