Barranco Camp

Barranco Camp, perched at an elevation of 3,900 meters (12,795 feet), is one of the most scenic and memorable stops on the Mount Kilimanjaro climbing routes. Known for its dramatic location beneath the towering Barranco Wall, this camp offers breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys and the distant peaks of Kibo and Mawenzi.

Barranco Camp is a favorite among climbers for its unique charm and the sense of accomplishment it brings. The day’s hike often includes navigating the challenging but exhilarating Barranco Wall, a non-technical scramble that rewards climbers with stunning vistas and a sense of adventure. The camp itself provides a welcoming atmosphere, where climbers can rest, refuel, and prepare for the next stage of their journey. With its mix of rugged beauty and camaraderie, Barranco Camp is a highlight of any Kilimanjaro trek.
