We will kick off the day with a hearty, energy-packed breakfast. Afterward, we will embark on a steeper trail that leads to Saddle Hut. Along the way, the hike becomes more challenging, but the increasingly spectacular views provide the perfect motivation. Once we reach Saddle Hut, you will have the option to embark on a short trek to Little Meru, a side peak offering stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes.

Upon completing the trek to Little Meru, we will return to Saddle Hut for dinner. Given that the summit hike begins at midnight, we highly recommend an early night’s rest to ensure you are fully energized and prepared for the demanding ascent

Our ascent to the summit begins just after midnight. For approximately five hours, the light of your headlamp will guide you as we tackle the most challenging portion of the climb. Due to the high altitude, this segment is physically demanding, but the incredible views and sense of accomplishment make it worthwhile. Upon reaching the summit, you will have time to soak in the breathtaking scenery, take photographs, and reflect on the journey so far.

On our descent, the experience becomes even more rewarding as the panoramic views of the lush mountains and vibrant landscapes unfold before you. After a relaxing lunch at Saddle Hut, we will continue descending for about two hours, eventually arriving back at Miriakamba Hut, where you can enjoy a restful evening.

We will start the final day with a filling breakfast at the camp. Then, we will begin the last leg of our trek, which takes us through Meru’s enchanting cloud forest. Resembling an otherworldly setting from a whimsical novel, this forest is truly mesmerizing. However, as the trail to Momela Gate is steep and often slippery, we urge you to tread cautiously.
