• Accommodation on Mount Kilimanjaro

Barafu Camp

• Map / Location

Altitude / Barafu Camp Elevation: 4645 m.a.m.s.l.

Barafu Camp also known as Barafu Hut Camp is the closest campsite and accommodation point near the Uhuru Peak summit. Barafu is a Swahili word meaning Ice. Barafu hut campsite is one of the last camps you come across right before summiting Mount Kilimanjaro , the other camps located near Kibo summit include Kibo huts ,  arrow glacier camp , and  school huts . This campsite is an overnight resting point situated on the south-eastern side, at the base of Kibo.

Just like the other campsites near the top of Mount Kilimanjaro , this one also lacks any basic structures save for a ranger’s hut and a few dry toilets in the form of pit latrines some placed right at the edge of the ridge.

It is a requirement for all those using this camp for accommodation to carry their own tents. When there is high traffic of people on this campsite, it would be highly difficult to find a great spot for pitching your tent as this campsite has a huge number of large rocks and toilets at the site.

What is the temperature of Barafu Camp and what is the ideal sleeping bag?

Depending on the time of the year and month, the temperatures at Barafu Camp can range from 4 degrees Celcius to -20 degrees Celcius near the summit. You are better off sleeping warmer than colder that is why we recommend sleeping bags that have a minimum rating of -10 degrees Celsius (14 Fahrenheit). In terms of the material, it will not matter much as you can use either a down sleeping bag which we recommend more than a synthetic one, but it is not a top priority especially if you are just going to use it once.

More about the recommended sleeping bags for Mount Kilimanjaro and Barafu Camp

Location of Barafu Campsite

Barafu hut is strategically situated on top of a ridge whereby it is fairly easy to spot oncoming hikers. Barafu Huts campsite is also located at the southeastern base of the Kibo volcanic cone . There is a huge scarcity of water available at the campsite, despite the place having immense amounts of ice near Barafu Hut Campsite.

The only water available is used for cooking or drinking and the porters often carry it. Due to the high elevation, which is unable to efficiently support plants and animals , this area has none of flora nor fauna present because it falls in the alpine desert region of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Its position on top of a ridge exposes it to high winds and very cold temperatures on Mount Kilimanjaro falling below freezing point with very low humidity.

Barafu hut campsite ground is rocky and full of volcanic soils and scree.

How high is the Barafu Hut Camp?

The Barafu Hut Camp simply known as Barafu Camp is located 4,673m or 15,330 ft on Mount Kilimanjaro. The camp is dusty, full of gravel, and is freezing cold up there. It is from Barafu camp that most routes use as the last campsite before making the final push to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, mostly done at midnight or shortly after midnight, to get to the summit by sunrise.

Distance from Barafu Camp to Uhuru Peak

It takes about 6-7 hours to reach the summit, Uhuru Peak (19,341ft or 5,895m) with an altitude difference of about 150m. if you leave Barafu camp at midnight or shortly after midnight, you will be at the summit of Kilimanjaro by early morning, just in time for an early morning sunrise.

In just three days, this Moscow itinerary takes in all the most iconic sights of this attraction-packed destination. After two and half days getting acquainted with the city, we’ve set time aside for you to explore Moscow your way and discover your own favourite hang-outs in a city overflowing with hidden treasures

3-Day Moscow Tour Highlights:

• Panoramic Tour of Moscow: See Moscow beyond the postcard images on a private excursion by car through the city streets including a drive along the banks of the Moskva River. Visit the famous Bolshoi Theatre, pass by Gorky Park and the Novodevichy Convent, and admire the city from on high at the Sparrow Hill observation platform.

• Moscow Metro Tour : Go deep underground on a subway tour of the famous Moscow metro. The world’s deepest metro system is renowned for its palatial, art-adorned stations, complete with marble columns and chandeliers.

On your first day, you’ll be treated to a panoramic, drive-by tour of Moscow to get a feel for the immense scale of one of the world’s most rapidly developing urban centres. The city’s history unfolds in real-time as you pass lavish imperial mansions, solemn Soviet structures and luxurious modern shopping centres.

Day two kicks off exploring Moscow’s historic centre on foot, followed by a tour of the Kremlin, the seat of Russian power and political intrigue for centuries. Stand in the Red Square, surrounded by the stunning architecture as you hear stories of the people and events behind many of Moscow’s most iconic landmarks.

On your final day, we’ll head beneath the city for a tour of the Moscow Metro and its famously ornate underground stations. Art lovers should hit up one of Moscow’s many world-class galleries such as the Tretyakov State Gallery, the Pushkin Museum or Garage, Moscow’s cutting-edge contemporary art museum. History fans can follow a Soviet trail through the city including Stalin’s Bunker, while those seeking a more indulgent experience can browse trendy neighbourhoods like Kitay Gorod or shop for everything from fashion to kitsch souvenirs at the enchanting Izmaylovo Flea Market. Foodies can head to one of the countless speciality stores sampling vodka, caviar and chocolate.

Day 1 Panoramic city tour

Welcome to the glorious capital of Russia, Moscow! You’ll be met by your driver at the airport and taken to your centrally located hotel.

After check-in and rest, meet your private guide at the hotel lobby for a comprehensive tour of Moscow by car. Visit the starkly contrasting Theatre Square to see the stunning Bolshoi Theatre, pass Tverskaya Street, the city’s main boulevard and home to the landmark Yeleseyevskiy Grocery Store.

Day 2 Red Square and Kremlin

After breakfast at the hotel, your guide will take you on a walking tour of the historical city centre. Stroll through the Red Square, the hub of cultural life in Moscow, with its elaborate ‘stone flower’ fountain and fantasy-like St Basil’s Cathedral – a postcard-perfect symbol of the nation. Admire the grandiose façade of GUM, the city’s most luxurious shopping centre, and visit Alexander’s Garden, with its eternal flame and the chance to watch a changing of the guards.

Break for lunch before continuing on a tour of the Kremlin and Armoury Chamber, famous of its collection of tsarist fashion, with regalia such as jewel-encrusted crowns, orbs and sceptres as well as arms and armour, exotic gifts from the leaders of faraway lands, and an illustrious case of Imperial Faberge eggs.

Take a stroll along Old Arbat street - the most famous street in Moscow. Through the centuries Arbat used to be one of the most bohemian places in Moscow. Today Arbat is a promenade full of small cozy cafes and street life.

The afternoon is free for you to either enjoy the rest of the day on your own or choose among optional excursions to explore more of Moscow. Visit the Tretyakov Gallery or Pushkin State Museum to admire Russian art. Join locals for a stroll at the Gorky or VDNH park.

Tour of Communist Moscow – every day

After the Communist October Revolution in 1918, Moscow became the capital of the Soviet Empire and was the center of socialist orbit for more than 70 years.

The city streets are full of remnants of the communist regime and the Cold War. This is a walking tour where I will show you the most exciting places in Soviet Moscow: from the notorious KGB headquarters, also known as Lubyanka to the Karl Marx Monument to small hidden remains from the time of hammer and sickle.
