Kilimanjaro
Rising from the plains, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest point in Africa at 5895 m. It has two peaks named, Mawenzi and Uhuru.
This giant volcano is encircled by forest over savanna and has five main vegetation zones. People have been climbing this mountain since 1894, but in 1973 it officially opened for tourism, and the park has since been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Five to nine day professionally guided hiking trips are available up one of several hiking routes. The climb is strenuous, poses health risks, and requires careful preparation, with good physical fitness.
If you would prefer a less strenuous way to enjoy Mount Kilimanjaro, we also offer day trips to this lovely area.
