CLIMBING MOUNT KILIMANJARO, MOUNT MERU AND MOUNT OLDONYO LENGAI

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is a breath taking activity arranged everyday with climbing Mount Kilimanjaro tours and safaris. Lying 3 degree north of equator Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and first tallest free Standing Mountain in the world at the altitude of 5895 meters above sea level. Crowned by an eternal snowcap, Mt. Kilimanjaro is situated inside the Kilimanjaro National Park in Tanzania. Our scope is to provide the professional climbing of Mount Kilimanjaro to the roof top of Africa the Uhuru Peak.

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro doesn’t require technical alpiners rather fit and eligible people from 12 to 80 years can reach the Uhuru Peak.

 

 

Kilimanjaro has six climbing routes to the top with Marangu (descending and ascending), Machame, Rongai, Lemosho, Umbwe, Shira and the Mweka route which is used for descending only. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro requires preliminary preparations as you will learn from this professional climbing Kilimanjaro website.

Tanzania has a diversity of mountains that are reliable for climbing, let alone the climbing of Mount Kilimanjaro; mount meru is commonly used for acclimatization before the Kilimanjaro climb. However one should not undermine Mount Meru which stands at the altitude of 4566 meters northwest of Mount Kilimanjaro in Arusha Region. The trend follows the climbing of another mountain located father west of Arusha Region the Mount Oldonyo Lengai standing at 2,880 meters, popularly known as the Mountain of GOD by the indigenous Maasai community that are inhabit the Ngorongoro conservation area.
