Mt Meru & Kilimanjaro (Machame)
Altitude 5895m, Duration 13 days, Grade 1A (grades)
Enjoyable trekking through a variety of landscapes
Background
This expedition to the summit of Africa’s highest mountain, includes a thorough programme of acclimatisation. It combines the ascent with the nearby extinct volcano; Mt Meru, a wonderful four day climb that provides the opportunity to see plenty of wildlife which is often scarce on Kilimanjaro. Before transferring to Kilimanjaro, we visit the Arusha National Park game reserve where we can expect to see elephant, buffalo, giraffe, antelope and numerous birds.
Machame Route A beautiful way to climb Kilimanjaro. The gradual ascent offers a variety of scenery and vegetation from rainforest and alpine moorland to crags and glaciers. We will catch gorgeous views out to the Southern Icefields. The final ascent commences in darkness, a very exciting time. The reward for our efforts is a spectacular dawn view across the East African plains; and hopefully an amazing sunrise across a wide open sky.
