Is the Marangu Route dangerous?

The Marangu Route doesn’t have a good altitude profile as it offers little time for proper acclimatization. This increases your chance of getting acute mountain sickness.

On the other hand, the Marangu Route doesn’t include the dangerous Western Breach, which we recommend to avoid at all times.

However, the steep Barranco Wall is included in this route. If you suffer from serious vertigo, you might prefer to avoid this challenging climb.
