  • Barranco camp (3976m - 13,044ft) on Kilimanjaro. Usually only one more camp before you attempt the walk to the summit is a great acclimatisation point and you get to see some of the unique giant Lobelia flowers and mountain animals scurrying about, as well as a chance to look up at The Breach (for a technical ascent) and the Barranco Wall - where you will go the next morning.
