Loved this! Short and sweet, it provided just what a solo vegan woman hiker (although not exclusively for this population) would need to know. I will definitely refer back to this when it comes time to gather supplies and pack.

Quick informative read

Exactly what I was looking for and grateful to have found! Informative and thoughtful tips to help you on your journey

This book was super short and not really worth getting, as you'll want a book with a lot more information in it, as well as a training plan

And for a book directed at women on the mountain the one off hand reference to menstruation needs was a surprise- I would've expected more on that subject since this book seems geared toward inexperienced hikers that may have questions about that

[Nastasia Verheijen]

A very short and to the point guide. Only to be recommended when you have read other material on climbing Mt Kilimanjaro. And even so, I still not think it's worth more than 2 stars, for some reason the writing/narrative wasn't flowing.
