==History== Before Independence in 1961, Marangu served as the headquarters of the Vunjo district, led by Chief (Mangi Mwitori) Petro Itosi Marealle and Paramount Chief (Mangi Mkuu) Thomas Marealle, installed in 1951 and based in Moshi. The four-and-a-half-day Marangu Route is considered the least demanding ascent of Kilimanjaro. Kinyala Johannes Lauwo (1871–1996) of Ashira Marangu is regarded as the first person to have climbed Kibo Peak, and was reported to have died at the age of 125 in 1996.
