Lemosho Routes
One of the routes with fewer crowds. It gives you more time to acclimatize, which means a higher chance of reaching the summit. Great for those who want a peaceful climb.
Marangu Routes

Umbwe Routes
Steepest and most challenging trail, fast ascent with fewer climbers, suited for experienced hikers. Known for dramatic ridges and adventurous trekking.
Shira Routes

Rongai Routes
This route approaches from the northern side near Kenya. It is quieter, less crowded, perfect if you prefer a wilderness experience. The gradual ascent makes it to be easier routes.
