I would like to hike Mt Meru but I can only do 2 days one night. Is this possible?

It is not possible to do a minimum of less than 3 days as a ranger is assigned to a group of up to 7 hikers. The park cannot assign 1 ranger for 1 hiker, which makes a 2-day hike not feasible unless a special agreement can be reached with the park.
