Start your day with breakfast and begin your hike to Lava Tower, a renowned landmark on Kilimanjaro. The trail is steep and rocky, offering views of Mt. Meru, Kilimanjaro's sister peak, rising above the clouds. From Lava Tower, turn towards the challenging, Western Breach ascent to Arrow Glacier camp (4800m). This segment is demanding, and altitude sickness symptoms might emerge. The campsite is breathtaking, surrounded by rocky terrain, devoid of vegetation, and extremely cold. Come well-prepared.

Day 4: : KARANGA CAMP TO BARAFU CAMP CONTINUE TO BARAFU CAMP
From Arrow Glacier camp, tackle steep scree and rocky sections, requiring scrambling as you ascend the Western Breach to the crater floor (5700m). This day will be your most challenging yet. In snowy conditions, the route may turn icy, requiring an ice axe or ski stick. Upon reaching the crater rim, be amazed by the snow and glaciers spread out before you. To your left lies Kilimanjaro's Northern Ice fields with the Furtwangler Glacier in view. Walk past the glacier to Crater camp, situated at the crater rim. If time permits, you can even climb to the Ash Pit (1 ½ hours), a remarkably formed 340m wide and 120m deep crater. The campsite is exceptionally cold, with a possibility of snow. Spending a night in Kilimanjaro's inner crater is a rare and rewarding experience.
