Today we will wake up early in the morning for breakfast and be ready to start hiking by 5pm. We will wind our way up the western breach non-technical climbing route. The first part is covered with a lot of screed or loose rock with the final part of the trail being steep rocky slopes which you will need to use your hands to navigate the sections and using rocks for hands hold.
We will spend 6 to 7 hours to crater camp where we will have hot lunch and rest for few hours, We will have an optional hike to explore the inner crater and ash pit, this is raised circular inner rim, the inside of which slopes down to a flat floor and then 200m deep inverted cone at the very center of the volcano also Kilimanjaro has one of the mostly perfectly formed volcanic ash pit of any mountain in the world.
