Getting There

  • Private Car

    If you are traveling by private car, start from Moshi, which is a key town in the Kilimanjaro Region. Take the B1 highway heading towards Arusha. After approximately 15 kilometers, look for signs directing you to the local roads leading to Kilimanbure. Turn onto the road that leads towards Kilimanbure, which is about 25 kilometers from the highway junction. Follow the signs and local directions, as Kilimanbure is a smaller peak and may not be marked on all maps.

  • Public Transport (Matatu)

    From Moshi, head to the Matatu (shared taxi) station located near the main bus terminal. Board a Matatu heading towards Arusha and inform the driver that you want to stop at the Kilimanbure turnoff. Cost for the ride will be approximately 1,000 TZS. Once you reach the turnoff, you may need to wait for a local motorcycle taxi (boda-boda) to take you the remaining distance to Kilimanbure, which should cost around 2,500 TZS.

  • Guided Tour

    Consider booking a guided tour that includes transportation to Kilimanbure. Many tour operators in Moshi offer packages that include a vehicle, a guide, and sometimes lunch. Prices for these tours can vary, typically starting around 50,000 TZS per person, depending on the services provided. This option is recommended for those who prefer a hassle-free experience and local insights.
