Don't sign up for the full 7-day Lemosho route unless you actually enjoy relentless altitude sickness and sleeping in tents. If you just want the aesthetic without the exhaustion, the 1-day hike challenge gives you a taste of the lower rainforest slopes for under a hundred bucks. Either go all-in with a serious guide or stick to the bike tours in the villages below. The peak looks cooler in photos than it feels while you're puking.
