Due to Mount Kilimanjaro’s proximity to the equator, this region doesn’t experience the extremes of winter and summer weather, but rather dry and wet seasons. Therefore, the best time to climb Kilimanjaro tends to be the warmest and driest months.
The primary issue here is safety, as the risks associated with climbing increase significantly when the weather is foul. The effects of rain, mud, snow, ice and cold can be very strenuous on the body. Correspondingly, your chances of a successful summit also increases significantly with nice weather. Of course, the mountain gets more foot traffic during these periods as well.
It’s possible to climb Kilimanjaro year round, however it is best to climb when there is a lower possibility of rain.
There are two dry seasons. The first dry season begins in December and goes through the beginning of March. The second dry season begins in late June and lasts through the end of October. These are considered to be the best times to climb Kilimanjaro in terms of weather. And correspondingly these are the busiest months on the mountain.
