Scots duo run up Mt Kilimanjaro in 7 hours

Scots duo run up Mt Kilimanjaro in 7 hours

The best advice to novice climbers who want to reach the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro in one piece and able to enjoy the beautiful scenery at the top is to spend several days (4 to 5) en route before reaching the summit. I have found that the 7-8 day trek (from start to finish) on the Lemosho route allows such a pace. This route allows the climber to gradually acclimatize and avoid mountain sickness.

So my advice is avoid what these two superhumans have done and take your time to reach the summit.
