Camp 1

Shira 1 is the second stop of the 7 night, 8-day climb on the Lemosho route. This is the first longer and harder of the days hiking covering almost 1000m in height from 2650m to 3550m. It is highly likely you will feel the effects of altitude sickness to some degree if you hadn't already done

Camp 1

Barranco Camp is an awesome if not daunting camp to arrive at. In truth, the act of getting here from Shira 2 is really tough as you go via Lava Tower for acclimatization, which sits at 4600m above sea level. You'll be sleeping at this height in a couple of days time. The reward for getting h

Camp 1

Karanga Camp sits at 4000m, so only 100m higher altitude than the previous camp and night at Barranco. This is done purposely, of course, to have your body acclimatize further. Have no illusions of an easy time getting to Karanga though as you will have taken on the famous Barranco Wall. A 300m v
