Shira Route Climbing or Shira Route Trekking.
Shira Route Climbing or Shira Route Trekking, is sometimes used to drive up to a high altitude on the Shira Plateau. The road head at about 3600m is about 6-7 hours drive from Moshi (depending on weather conditions, if it is wet the track beyond the Londorossi National Park gate, 2250m, could become impassable.) There are campsites at the road head and the Shira Hut, 3840m, on the Machame Route is just 1 hour's walk away. This route is not recommended for walking as it simply follows a road. Beware of starting your ascent of Kili by driving here, you will probably suffer from altitude sickness unless you are already acclimatized.
