Mount Kilimanjaro Climbing

everything you need to know

Mount Kilimanjaro boasts an impressive elevation of 19,341 feet (5,895 meters), making it the pinnacle of Africa and attracting climbers worldwide.

Kilimanjaro holds the title of the world's largest free-standing mountain. Unlike other mountains that are part of mountain ranges, Kilimanjaro stands alone. Furthermore, it's one of the Seven Summits, the highest peaks on each of the seven continents.

While Kilimanjaro's higher altitudes might seem barren, the Kilimanjaro National Park surrounding its base is rich with unique fauna and diverse flora, making the initial stages of the climb as rewarding as the latter ones.

Kilimanjaro is classified as a dormant volcano. While it doesn't show any signs of eruptive activity, its towering snow-capped peak symbolises nature's majesty and draws climbers from across the globe.

Climbers ranging from children above 10 to spirited individuals in their 60s and 70s have summited Kilimanjaro. Determination, preparation, and a positive attitude are the most crucial factors.
