After breakfast, with Njofu Expedition, you’ll continue your descent, passing the Mandara Hut as you make your way to the Marangu Gate, a journey that takes approximately 6 hours. We highly recommend that you wait to tip your porters until you and all your gear are safely at the gate.
At the Marangu Gate, you will log your name and details in a book. This is where climbers receive their certificates upon completing their trek. Climbers who reach Gillman’s Point (5685m) earn a green certificate, while those who make it to Uhuru Peak (5895m) receive a gold certificate.
Next, you’ll drive back to Moshi for a well-deserved hot shower, a hearty meal, a restful night in a comfortable bed, and to celebrate your achievement!
