Itinerary description
We left the Campsite at 9 instead of 8. We wanted to wait for the sun to rise above the mountain and warm the land a bit.
The minute we left the camp we started our ascent on the Baranco Wall. It's a steep rocky cliff for around 300 m of height.
Once you reach the top, you have an amazing view over the valley below and the cities.
From there, the trail takes you downhill passing by beautiful vegetation.
After 5 km, you have to go uphill for around 100 m to reach Karanga Campsite at 3995 m of altitude.
