Kilimanjaro In August

August on Kilimanjaro offers the perfect experience with warm, clear days and bustling trails for thrill seekers.

In August, Kilimanjaro becomes a hub for climbers, thanks to the dry, clear weather coinciding with summer vacations in the US and Europe. This month is celebrated for its superb climbing conditions, featuring dry and dusty trails that add a unique edge to the trekking experience. Although the mountain experiences a surge in climbers, areas like the western side remain less congested, offering tranquillity amidst the majestic views of the Shira Plateau and Volcano.

The climate on Kilimanjaro during this time is characterized by daytime temperatures averaging around 26°C, with nights cooling down to approximately 15°C. Rainfall is minimal, at about 10 mm, leading to predominantly dry conditions that are ideal for hiking enthusiasts. The skies are mostly clear, providing unobstructed and breathtaking views of the landscapes, especially notable on the cooler western side of the mountain.

August is a lively time on Kilimanjaro, suited for those who relish active, vibrant trails and are well-prepared for the warm days and cooler evenings. Trekkers are advised to bring along a lightweight Merino wool buff to comfortably deal with the occasional dusty winds on their journey.

The summit is what drives us, but
the climb itself is what matters

We (2 adults plus 2 kids aged 9+11) undertook a 10 day trip to Arusha, Lake Eyasi, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Tarangire. We wanted an individual tour which included not only game driving but some insights into socio-cultural life in Tanzania (the kids attended a local school for two days and we wanted to spend some time with the Datoga tribe and bushmen at Lake Eyasi)
