The Best Time To Trekk Mount Kilimanjaro - Tecomate Tours & Safaris

Tecomate Tours and Safaris suggest that the best time to trek Mount Kilimanjaro is during the dry season, which runs from January to March. During this period, there is no rain and the mountain is less crowded. Mid-June to August conditions is good too, it is cold and there will be snow on the ground in June/July, but the skies are beautiful and clear.

September is popular and therefore busier. The days are warmer, there is a chance of clouds but the conditions are good. October is also favourable for climbing, days are warm and there is a moderate chance of clouds and you will see fewer climbers. As the short rains begin in November, conditions become less favourable.

It is best to avoid the rains in late November and conditions can be variable into December too, the long rains occur in April, May and early June and Tecomate Tours advise you avoid these periods.
