Day 5:-Arrow Glacier Camp 4870m-Crater camp 5730m
Start early for a steep climb a long the wall of the crater.much of the climb is scrambling that does not require technical skills. but there is no well defined track and the guide will manouvre the way up to the crater rim while taking caution of loose Rocks otherwise released by melting ice. NOTE:Above 5500m is a point of no return as it is not possible for a descent a long this way even if its necessary for a critical rescue;So its important that climbers a long this climb are fit enough.

Day 6:-Wake at 0200hrs to attempt the summit Uhuru peak 5896m.The climb follows a steep zigzag trail up a long the crater wall..continue for an hour to reach Uhuru peak at sunrise.After a timely photographing ,descend a long the crater rim via Stella Point 5720m to barafu hut 4600m for breakfast.Descend Mweka Route to the millenium Camp to stay at Mweka hut 3100m for overnight.

Day 7:-After Breakfast, walk down 3hrs through the rainforest to mweka gate 1980m.Connect a vehicle to Mweka town for an overnight in the Hotel where the trip ends.

Important Note:The Breach wall is complicated while it involves a lot of risks possed by falling rocks  released by melting ice! Every climber a long this Crater wall must be aware they are taking it at there own risk besides being a difficult route and not forgetting that as the climb gets beyond an elevation of 5500m,its no turning back ! regardless of any evacuation/Rescue becoming very necessary;It can't be climbed down due to its delicate terrain and difficulties associated with its gradient.
