Kilimanjaro Guide - Day 3 - Shira Camp to Barranco Camp

The third day took our group from Shira Camp (12,450ft) to Barranco Camp (13,000ft). Today was a longer than usual trek day for us. While we were on the trail for close to 10 hours, the weather and views were spectacular all day long.

We hiked along ridge and through a long narrow valley for most of the day.


This is pretty much an acclimation day, and if you are feeling the altitude, it will hopefully give you a chance to catch up.
