Second Cave Camp

Second Cave Camp is a small, secluded campsite along Kilimanjaro’s Rongai Route, set at approximately 3,450 metres within the sparse moorland zone. Guests pitch their own expedition tents in a designated area, as the camp has no permanent accommodation structures or furnishings. Facilities are extremely basic, limited to pit latrines, with no running water available. Its quiet setting, with few passing trekkers, offers a sense of privacy and uninterrupted mountain stillness. Typically used as a rest or lunch stop, it supports gradual acclimatisation while trekking towards higher camps on the northern slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro.
