- Hello! We are Haley & Ryan. We just recently summited Uhuru Peak, Mount Kilimanjaro! 🏔️🇹🇿
* We summited in October, 2023.
* Mt. Kilimanjaro is located in Tanzania, Africa.
* It is the tallest free standing mountain in the World!
* 19,341 ft Elevation.
* We chose the Lemosho Route. We hiked about 42 miles in 8 days. This route has the highest success rate.
* The company we chose to go with was Peak Planet. They were absolutely awesome and we do recommend them.
* This was one of the most difficult hikes we have done and learned a lot from our experience.
If you have any questions about our hike or our gear, feel free to comment below and we will answer as soon as we can! Thank you for watching 😊

Kilimanjaro is hopefully going to be mine to conquer with a friend in 2025, we are just trying to decide between the Lemosho or the Machame route.

Thank you, Chris! Good luck in 2025! ☺️
@@hr_adventures Thanks man! 😊
Congrats guys, come back 😉!!
Thank you! ☺️
Thank you for posting. Great video. I did the Lemosho Route October 2023.
Thank you for watching ! That is when we did it too ! 😊
Many congratulations guys! Truly remarkable.
Thank you ! 😊
Great video! We head out at the end of the year for the Lemosho route with Peak Planet. We are very excited! Anything you would have done different? Gear, etc?
Hello! Thank you for watching! Peak Planet was a great company. We do not have any complaints with them. Check out our most recent video at th-cam.com/video/d-G5SMtzSsw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LnW8v5JFac75eblv ! There are a couple things we wish we did pack! Good luck on your hike!
Great video, I plan to summit in July 2024. Please do a gear review. Thank you
Hello, Thank You! We actually did a video on what we brought. th-cam.com/video/E2zAKpM5fk8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ziSSNuJKXBqfOi6O. Let us know if you have any questions 😊
Thanks for this video. I do this route in June 2024. I'm curious what month you went in? Also, what is the type of warm buff/beanie you were both wearing?That seems perfect!
Thank you for watching! We just completed the hike a week ago! In October 😊 On Summit night, we wore regular winter beanies and Stoic Sherpa Fleece Balaclavas. We fully recommend them. We were glad we had them. Good Luck in June! It’s an amazing experience.
Great job congratulations. I’m going in July next year on the same route. What did you use for videos and crucially, for charging phone/ camera
Did you carry a GPS phone? To let family know of progress?
Thank you!
Hello! Thank you for watching 😊 We used our iPhones and GoPros for our footage. We had 2 Goal Zero Solar Panels and 2 Solar power bank. This was plenty for us. There was phone service on the mountain at some of the campsites so we didn’t need a GPS phone 😊 Hope that helps! Good luck in July! It is an incredible hike.
Nice pic
Awesome! Can I ask which camera you guys used?
Hello! Thank you for watching. For Mt. Kilimanjaro, we used our IPhone 14 Pros and GoPro Hero 12. For this trek, we didn’t want to risk damaging our Sony and wanted to save weight. 😊
Thank you for posting this video. My son and daughter in love leave for their trip in 2 days and while I'm excited for their adventure, I'm also a worrier by nature and this video helps me a lot! Congratulations!
Thank you for watching! Good luck to your son and daughter ! 😄
Curious on your daytime hikes. Is temperature tolerable? Thinking of wearing a normal pants, no layer. I can have my jacket on my backpack if i need it. Targeting to hike Kili in Sep next year. Thank you for your help.
Hello! Thank you for watching! For pants, we did not layer until summit night. When we went, it warmed up during the day, so we never felt we needed to layer the bottoms. We also carried our rain pants in our packs, if we did need an extra layer of warmth. 😊
@@hr_adventures - thank you. ☺️

Hey guys! Could you share a little bit about how you prepared physically for the climb? I have six months to go!
Hello! Thank you for watching! We prepared by taking hikes at our local parks in Ohio using the gear we planned on taking. Our recommendation would be to really get some miles in with the boots and your backpack that you plan on using. Especially adding in the backpack the amount of water and weight you plan on bringing. Good luck in six months! You will do great! The guides are a lot of help and will go at your pace! Don’t worry about trying to keep up with others in your group. Our group ended up breaking into a few groups at different speeds.
Can this be done with only one month of training . I hike once every two weeks and workout 4x a week but I’m starting late I know. Just want to know if you think it can be done or if anyone in your group did it with minimal/ no training ?
Hello! There were a few that did very little training and conquered Mt. Kilimanjaro! It can be done 😄
Hi. Great video. I really enjoyed it! I have a personal question about clothing. How many pairs of pants and underwear did you bring. I figure I can wear 2 pairs of hiking pants as long as I can change my underwear daily. Is that reasonable? You did say it’s dusty and dirty. Everyone says what they brought but not how many. (I am doing the same route and in January 2025 for reference) thanks for the excellent info
Hello, thank you for watching! ☺️.
I brought 2 pairs of hiking pants. I brought 1 pair of pants that fit me and 1 pair that were a little big on me for me to put base layers on underneath. I also had a pair of goretex pants for the rain or snow. I did bring a pair of underwear and socks for each day of the trek. Hope that helps! Check out our packing list video for more details ☺️ th-cam.com/video/E2zAKpM5fk8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UBMbcJRwnH0zm-U_

What porter group did you use?
We went through the company Peak Planet 😊
Great video, but the sound is messed up. The music is much louder than the voices, which are very hard to hear.
Thank you for letting us know! We will get that squared away on the next video!
