Mount Kilimanjaro
is the highest freestanding peak
in the world and the highest mountain
in Africa.
It is Africa's representative on
the prestigious listing of the world's
"seven summits." For the adventurous,
a climb of Mount Kilimanjaro is
one of the things in life that you
just must do. A trek through the
mists of equatorial jungle and the
summit's steep approaches is richly
rewarded by the breathtaking views
from the top.
Although Mount Kilimanjaro lies close to the equator, its peaks have a permanent covering of snow and ice. There are several routes to the summit, most notably on the western flank of the mountain. The Marangu route is the most popular, and the Machame and Shira routes are the most demanding and physically challenging.
Kilimanjaro consists of three distinct summits. To the west is the Shira Plateau, while Mawenzi Peak lies to the east. Between the two is Uhuru Peak, the snow-capped summit that reaches 19,340 feet (5,895 meters) into the equatorial skies. Our treks do not require any technical mountaineering equipment or skills, and we strive to attain Uhuru Peak, literally the "roof of Africa."
