The Rongai route begins its ascent of Kilimanjaro from the northeastern side of the mountain, along the border between Tanzania and Kenya. Experienced guides consider the Rongai route to be both easier and more scenic than the Marangu Trail. Summit attempts begin in the pre-dawn hours, with climbers usually reaching Gillman's Point at sunrise. For those who feel strong enough, an approximately three hour round trip hike will take you from Gillman's Point to Uhuru Peak.

Embarking on this hiking adventure was truly a breathtaking experience, especially when I reached the stunning summit views of Kilimanjaro. While the Rongai route offered some unique scenery, I found the pace a bit rushed at times, which made it challenging to fully soak in the beauty around me.
