Climb Kilimanjaro & Mount Meru 5895m - Grade 1A

Kilimanjaro Western Breach Expedition

Kilimanjaro a volcanic adventure, an ascent by the remote Rongai route.

Mt. Meru And Kilimanjaro 5895 metres
Kilimanjaro SummitOur 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.

SAFARI (EXTEND YOUR STAY FOR A 3 DAY SAFARI)
This is a lodge safari with no camping.
Lake Manyara Park is a fresh water lake in the Rift Valley part of Tanzania. Animals youmay see include hippos, elephants, flamingos, wildebeest, giraffes, baboons and lions.
Ngorongoro Crater one of theworld’s largest craters packedwith just about every species of wildlife to be found in East Africa. This is also a favoured place for the localmassi tribes people.
Tarangire Park on the course of the Tarangire Riverwhere the park fillswith zebra, leopards, lions, elands, buffalo, giraffes and elephants.

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.
