CLIMB WITH THE BEST

The UK's #1 all inclusive Kilimanjaro group climbs

Summit with full support

A Kilimanjaro group climb is a trip of a lifetime, so choose the best! Over 25 years, we’ve helped 7,000+ trekkers reach the stunning 5,895m summit, the roof of Africa. Join a group climb with a UK Mountain Leader, Medic, expert local crew, and like-minded teammates. Fundraise or climb for yourself. We also offer Women Only, Dads & Lads, and bespoke trips for corporates, charities, schools, universities, and private groups.

Climb Kilimanjaro With Us!

UK's #1 Kili operator

An Action Challenge Kilimanjaro Climb gives you full support all the way. Our climbs have a success rate of better than 97%. We include unlimited free UK training before you go, preparation guides, discounted kit hire and more. 

Don’t risk it with an unproven operator – climb with confidence, and have the best team behind you every step of the way. 

Our all inclusive ‘group departures’ are probably the best way to climb Kilimanjaro! Share an unforgettable adventure with up to 20 or so like minded folk.

  • 20+ departures each year
  • Choice of 5 routes & itineraries
  • Join as an individual, a couple, or with friends.
  • High quality services & hospitality
  • With or without airline flights

The blueprint for Action Challenge trip is based on delivering a high quality enjoyable experience – and doing it all safely. An experienced UK Mountain Leader ensures that all aspects of the challenge run to plan – and one of our UK Medics with an expedition med kit is on-hand to look after the group’s wellbeing – enabling everyone to have the best chance of successfully competing their challenge.

We go to great lengths to ensure that we only use the best local organisations to supply the all-important ground logistics and the on-challenge support, catering, and hospitality teams – with experienced guides leading the way on the trails with their deep local knowledge and authentic style.

Like minded people with a similar sense of adventure – but often from very different backgrounds, and with a wide range of experience, ages, levels of fitness, and personal ambitions. Our trips are perfect for individuals, couples, and small groups of friends to join – and then to take on a unique challenge as part of a larger group which shapes & bonds as the adventure unfolds!

Whether its’s the hotels,  restaurants & transfers before & after the main challenge – or the challenge accommodation & meals whilst out on the trails – our all inclusive packages mean that you will get a top quality experience at a great value price! Flights are generally included, but there’s a ‘land only’ option if you’d prefer to book your own – and single supplement accommodation upgrades are available.

The group comes together – takes on a tough challenge together – and then celebrates its achievements in style on the final night of the trip in a local restaurant or hotel, with medals, awards, and a maybe a bit of a party! Many of our participants make new special friends on our trips – and quite a few come back together for another challenge in the following years!

A successful challenge starts with good preparation. The better prepared you are the more confident you’ll be, and the more you’ll enjoy it! Our ‘Challenge App’ will have all the info & details of what to expect on your challenge – and how to prepare for it. We also offer unlimited free UK training walks. These one-day walks run Spring through Autumn in some of the UK’s most scenic locations, including the South Downs, Brecon Beacons, Snowdonia, the Peak District, and the Lake District. They’re a great way to meet fellow trekkers before your big adventure, get to know some of our challenge leaders, and most importantly to build confidence and fitness on varied terrain.

The Classic Routes

LEMOSHO ROUTE

The Lemosho Route heads in from the west, all the way round to Kilimanjaro’s southern side. A varied trek with changing views. From day 3 it’s identical to the Machame Route (including Lava Tower acclimatisation) – but has an extra day prior to arrival at high camp, which  many makes the final push to the summit feel less pressurised.

DELUXE KILIMANJARO

Our Deluxe Kilimanjaro Climb follows the scenic Northern Circuit over 12 days, with 8 days trekking. Enjoy private camps with showers, upgraded meals, and comforts like foot baths. Led by a UK leader and medic, this fully inclusive adventure offers great acclimatisation, support, and camaraderie.

MACHAME ROUTE

The 6-day Kilimanjaro Machame Route trek heads in from the south western side of the National Park, through the dense rain forest. It’s a short & sharp approach to the summit via Barafu Camp and Stella Point. The varied scenery along the way, makes it one of the most interesting ascents of Kilimanjaro for those who feel confident!

NORTHERN CIRCUIT

The Northern Circuit is Kilimanjaro’s longest and quietest route, offering a 12-day adventure with 8 days of trekking and excellent acclimatisation. Starting at Londorossi Gate, the route circles the mountain via remote northern slopes, with highlights including Lava Tower, Shira Plateau, and a sunrise summit at Uhuru Peak

RONGAI ROUTE

Ideal for those seeking a less crowded climb with varied scenery and strong acclimatisation. Starting through farmland and forest, it climbs steadily to Mawenzi Tarn, then crosses the high-altitude Saddle. The summit push begins at Kibo Camp, ascending via Gillman’s Point and Stella Point to Uhuru Peak (5,895m).
