The Marangu Route, also known as the Coca-Cola Route or Tourist Route, is the oldest and most popular of all routes on Mt Kilimanjaro, mainly because it offers hikers hut accommodation on the mountain. Mandara and Kibo Huts each have 60 bunk beds, and Horombo Hut has 120 bunk beds.
Walking along this route is often described as easy. Despite this, it has the lowest success rate. We recommend 6 Days Marangu Route instead of 5 Days Marangu Route because many climbers attempt this route in 5 days, not allowing enough time and not acclimatizing properly.
