Horombo huts campsite is an accommodation camp that is located along the Marangu route of mt. Kilimanjaro. It is one of the largest on the mountain as well as one of the few with both cabin accommodation as well as a separate area for pitching tents. It is the second campsite from the start of the route or Marangu gate, and is normally used by hikers on the Marangu route during both ascent and descent, as well as descending climbers on the Rongai route. There is a large supply of water at Horombo huts from a nearby stream, thus making it one of the few camps on the mountain with W.Cs and bathroom wash sinks. Its cabins are wooden A shaped huts that are capable of housing 6 to 8 people each and although no self contained rooms are available, the cabins are capable of holding up to 120 climbers. Other facilities at the campsite include a rangers hutoffice, a mess hall and separate housing for the porters and guides.
