Kilimanjaro a volcanic adventure, an ascent by the remote Rongai route.
Mt.
Meru And Kilimanjaro 5895 metres
Our
shortest 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.
Having acclimatised on Mt Meru, you should be in good shape to
enjoy the ascent of Kilimanjaro by the Rongai route, perhaps the
most remote and quietest route to the summit. We return to the
valley via Mweka track.

Altitude
Warning
We take acclimatisation seriously and will not do a five
or six day dash up Kilimanjaro. It is not only unfair but success
rates are poor and there is a serious risk of people suffering
from Acute Mountain Sickness. Our success rate is 99.9% and we
have had no clients suffer any serious effects of altitude. We
want you to have an enjoyable time and come back formore.
Level
of Support
A member of Adventure Peaks will lead the expedition alongside
our local guide and team of porters.
