Everyone will feel that it becomes harder to breathe at higher altitudes while climbing Kilimanjaro. But does that mean that breathing will become a real struggle? Yes and no – it is a real struggle with an easy solution: walk slower!
Climbing Kilimanjaro is not a sprint, and during the final summit push, the thin air will make you reduce your walking pace to one step at a time, quite literally! As long as you take your time, shortness of breath is a manageable struggle. When it becomes unbearable, stop and rest.
You should not find it hard to breathe while resting. If you do, you should not continue your climb.
