      The first part of the trek is gradual and very rewarding as you begin to climb up through the almost magical forest with its old manโ€™s beard (a kind of thick hanging moss), thereโ€™s an abundance of birdlife through this section and itโ€™s great to have the shade of the thick canopy overhead, walking time is 3-4 hours to Mariakamba hut. Picnic lunch at the half way point which has some rewarding views of the low lying land - altitude is 2,514 meters.


      Good opportunity to view Mount Kilimanjaro at sunset and keep a watch for Elephants as they tend to pass through this area in the late afternoon.
