The Lemosho Route is the longest of the major routes for climbing
Kilimanjaro, and it is the most scenic as well due to the extra day
and the remoteness of the trailhead. The other major distinction between
Lemosho and the others is this is the only route where climbers need to
spend the first day with an armed ranger due to the abundant wildlife in
the area.
The climb itself can take either 7 or 8 days, with 8 days being
recommended so climbers have more time to acclimate before the brutal
summit day.

The scenery might be the best of all the routes, and in addition you
might see wildlife on the first day.
