Thank you so much for watching this and for you nice comments. Meanwhile I put together all information in a separate video in order to help you prepare for this adventure. I went in September and have summed up all the information in an own blog post here: www.back-packer.org/climbing-kilimanjaro-tips/
I trekked the Lemosho Route (and successfully summited) back in 2015 at age 55. Loved your video--I got to relive the greatest adventure of my life! And the Barranco Wall: You either love it or hate it...I loved it! Cheers!
The real heroes are the porters. Notice how huge the packs are that they carry on their backs and shoulders and, yes, on their heads, yet how quickly, you can say effortlessly, they climb the trails. I bet you wouldn't hear any "Steve-like" panting out of them. :) The other heroic sights are the beautiful scenery, for level after level, plus the determination and the joy of accomplishment of the climbers. And best of all are the teaser shots as the summit reveals itself. The way you reserved this hidden treat for us was very nicely handled, Steve. How you're coping with altitude sickness shows in your face, Steve, around your eyes. At first, I thought it was simply bad lighting. You're a strong man to have made it through this.
ha! That's one of the first things I realized and my respect for them grew each day seeing what they are doing there (that's also why we loved calling them G-Fighters instead of porters). Trekkers like me go up there one time and celebrate the achievement while the porters are the true kili heroes. Our team was simply amazing and I hope to have captured that apart from my own story. Thank you so much for your nice words, that means a lot to me!
Kaznzuri guys! I feel your joy, sense of accomplishment and pain. We summitted mid-July’24 via 9-day Lemosho route. No one told us how hard the descent is 😄 I watched your video 11 months ago as part of initial prep, so thank you! Phenomenal Tanzanian guides, porters, chefs, food and people💪🏽🙏🏼
This was the best documentary I have watched . I will be trekking this same route 3/1/20 so it was very informative and easy to watch ! Thank you very much

Thank you😎 I SUMMIT Kili 21.10.21 did Lemosho Route and only found your video now ☀️ it's a STUNNING representation of an AMAZING experience everyone should do✨
Bravo, bravo standing innovation congratulations. Very well filmed and edited. I saw Kilimanjaro 35 years ago from Moshi when my dad took us on a saffari with a Datsun that had only 20cm clearance. Overheated 4 times in Serengeti but the saffari was epic. When I saw the snow on Kilimanjaro I could not understand how it was possible to have snow at the equator. I was 5-6 year old at the time. May be one day I'll try to climb it. This documentary is a great inspiration. Thanks

Dear Steve, thank you so much for uploading this amazing video. When I visited Amboseli/Kenya in 2003 I told my wife that I would like to hike Mt Kilimanjaro one day. Now, 15 years later, I have decided to do it. I will also walk the Lemosho Route end of January 2019. Just 2 months to go, and honestly I start getting a bit nervous. Videos like yours confirm that it was the right decision. I am aware that this will probably the hardest thing I have ever done, but I will be ready for this challenge. For preparation I am running, riding my MTB and hiking in the nearer area, wheras there are no mountains here. Thanks again! Karsten
That's a great way to kick of 2019, Karsten. It looks like you got everything sorted and come with the right attitude - training is important to be able to also enjoy this experience. I wish you all the best for this wonderful adventure!
Harriet, great to see you here! Thanks for being part of this awesome adventure - you guys made my job easy by hiking always in line. haha :) Means a lot to me to hear such nice words from people who have been part of this all the way. Hope you recovered well and had an amazing safari afterwards!
What an incredible documentary, with a deep view of the climbers and the heroes porters, that makes an unique video of climbing Kilimanjaro, I wish I could get it in 2020 or 2021. Congrats for the video Steve!
Thank you so much for this video..I climbed kilimanjaro on 2013..through marangu route...its a place to see ..I can't explain it but you'll have to trek it...and you'll feel un overwhelming joy and closeness to God or appreciate Gods creation...I miss Tanzania from USA
Whoaaa!!! Kilimanjaro is a huge bucket list item for me. I've been across the Himalaya and the Andes but both by car. But I've always been fascinated by climbing two mountains: Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Fuji! So I have watched a lot of documentaries about both of them and I must say that your video is one of the best ones out there when it comes to showing the details of the trek!
Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Fuji are two mountains I've climbed. Both of them were exhilarating experiences, each in it's own way. They are not really difficult to climb if your body can adjust to the heigth. But the last day on Mt. Kilimanjaro was tough. Invest in an extra acclimatation day and you will increase your chances of succeeding.
Thanks Steve! That was just the motivation I needed to hang in with my training. I leave in 3 weeks for this exact trip with my son who will turn 33 on the hill. So I'm not as old as Larry but I have worked my but off to get in shape for this dream. Great review of the details and team support! I have shared this with my whole family so they get an idea.
Awesome shots and great story… I love it! May I ask how you went about getting a drone up there? I have heard it can take some time to get permits and is not so easy. I am trying to find someone who can assist me with all necessary permits etc. Thanks & regards, Nic
"Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro ... " This is an ignorantly titled video. It is not Mt. Kilimanjaro. Kilima in Swahili means "mountain" ... so the title incorrectly translates as Mt. Mountain njaro. Kilimanjaro. translates as Mountain shining In 1965 three of us climbed to Gilmans Point, up and down in two days ... for free. I have the video as evidence!!
Thank you Steve awesome video very inspiring. I have booked to go in September 2020 on the same route as you for a significant birthday treat and although you have confirmed to me it will be hard it will also be a marvelous adventure. Also what a fine tribute you have made to the porters, guides and your other fellow trekkers.
Absolutely charming!❤️ I loved this documentary about climbing Kilimanjaro. Very informative and packed full of information. Best TH-cam video on this subject by far. Thank you so much for filming and sharing your experience. Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏
Great job and congratulations! This was a great documentary on the joy and struggle of pursuing the high peaks. I have been considering adding this great mountain to my bucket list and have been checking out your catalog of videos for information. Cheers!
wow it is very informative and educational documentary. It is not just ordinary travel but so much historical information. a well done job and so impressive. Love from Philippines.
You did the great job I was struggling to take my decision about go or not go but you inspire me to go so thank you very much for sharing your happiness and experience with worlds unknown people Thank you 🙏 thank you
Wonderful video Steve... I vicariously enjoyed it without the effort....Well done....Truly inspiring and heartlifting ..the power of the human spirit...
@@littlebrayutd I did yes! Me and my Dad both made it to the summit, it was an unforgettable experience and an amazing way to connect with my Dad more. I wouldn't rush back though 😂
Absulutely stunning video Steve. A huge well done to you and all the ream, the guides, the porters the cooks and everyone involved. Great commentary, nice music and great camera work. I go in Oct 2021 and this has been such an education. Many thanks.

Thank you for the video, I loved how authentic and detailed it was! I’m planning to go in late February next year, can I ask what your thoughts are about that time of year?
Nice video I love it we are supposed to clim it in sept 2022 for our honey moon (after being postponed) I hope we will enjoy as you did and succeed. Looking after it
Oh my word, I am going up Kili on this same route; Lemosho Western Breach! But I am doing 6 other multi day hikes here on South Africa to acclimatize in addition to trail running and ultra marathons. Can’t wait to be back in Tanzania! The last time I was there was work

Excellent job Steve. After my Swiss Alps trip to Jungfraujoch I am considering this. Only thing is there are no trains. This is the real deal so I may have to first do some endurance training.
Excellent video, especially that you presented us the people "behind the scene" which made possible a normal being without any mountain experience, to climb to almost 6000m! I was mostly impressed by that GFighter; he was so dedicated to learn and work, that I'm sure he'll become a CEO guide in short time.

I did the 6 day machame route in october. The only symptoms I had was a little loss of appetite at lunch at lava tower, and a little bit of vomiting that next morning, but after breakfast that morning, felt great for the rest of the trip.
very detail journey, with so many climbers, how do they keep the trail free from trash?. I have seen other documentary on different routes, they sleep in wood cabins. So the chef, porters, cook etc are keeping the locals employed? From ecology point of view, wouldn't permanent wooden champs at different peaks better for the environment?
Hey - the huts are only on the Marangu route, which is the most popular of all routes. Trash in the camp is usually taken care of by the tour operators - beyond that it is everyones responsibility to take care of the environment and don't litter. There is a lot more work to do in educating people on this matter for sure as Kilimanjaro attracts a lot of people who aren't trekking regularly.

Congrats on your summit! Can you share some perspective and/or tips descending after reaching summit? How long does that take? Also, on the last night before you peaked, you mentioned that you took medicine - is this needed and/or necessary for altitude sickness??
Wowwwww Great great adventure. Which month was this that you trekked to the summit (it's so misty). I plan a dry month like January or Feb 2021 if covid restrictions are lifted. Amazing journey.
Amazing documentary! Thank you so much for sharing this experience! The gfighters team is very helpful, it seems. Your personality has great traits man! We can see those in your small actions and interactions with people. Well done!

have you ever heard of a CF patient who has climbed mt. Kilimanjaro?
Wonderfu¡!!!
I am going to do it!!!!!!! Greetings from South Africa
Thank you for making this documentary of Mt. Kilimanjaro Lemosho route. Going there soon! Who hooo! Hoping for the very best.
proudly Tanzanian I'm from this small town called Moshi Kilimanjaro I'm happy to see our unique mountain on you're channel
Wow from Moshi also here
I trekked the Lemosho Route (and successfully summited) back in 2015 at age 55. Loved your video--I got to relive the greatest adventure of my life! And the Barranco Wall: You either love it or hate it...I loved it! Cheers!
I've watched about a dozen videos on Kilimanjaro and they are interesting. This video has been the best.
The real heroes are the porters. Notice how huge the packs are that they carry on their backs and shoulders and, yes, on their heads, yet how quickly, you can say effortlessly, they climb the trails. I bet you wouldn't hear any "Steve-like" panting out of them. :)

very detail journey, with so many climbers, how do they keep the trail free from trash?. I have seen other documentary on different routes, they sleep in wood cabins. So the chef, porters, cook etc are keeping the locals employed? From ecology point of view, wouldn't permanent wooden champs at different peaks better for the environment?
Hey - the huts are only on the Marangu route, which is the most popular of all routes. Trash in the camp is usually taken care of by the tour operators - beyond that it is everyones responsibility to take care of the environment and don't litter. There is a lot more work to do in educating people on this matter for sure as Kilimanjaro attracts a lot of people who aren't trekking regularly.
Oh my god, it look like peaceful wakanda, I think kilimanjaro get in my list...good job

Thank you very much Sir for Sharing such a wonderful information.....!
Hi Steve, awesome video!
I am going with G adventures in June this year, also on the Lemosho tour.
Which month in the year did you go?
Congrats on your summit! Can you share some perspective and/or tips descending after reaching summit? How long does that take? Also, on the last night before you peaked, you mentioned that you took medicine - is this needed and/or necessary for altitude sickness??
Hey, sure I will. In the next video I will share all my tips for preparation and planning!
@@BackPackerSteve Good. Sort of like the summary you gave after your Colombia series.

Great achievement...salute...Love from India ❤️
You have done good work on this.
Wowwwww
Great great adventure.
Which month was this that you trekked to the summit (it's so misty).
I plan a dry month like January or Feb 2021 if covid restrictions are lifted.
Amazing journey.
Hi Steve! Spitzen Video! Sehr informativ. Du setzt dir tolle Ziele! Weiter so! Es gibt auch Berge die sind weniger überlaufen ;-)
