Mount Kilimanjaro Trekking

Kilimanjaro, the top of Africa

Yes, this is Africa’s big one. It’s Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in the world with it’s peak 5,895 metres above sea level. This is the one you want to climb.

Surprisingly, it’s the highest mountain that you can actually walk up. However, whilst it is relatively easy for a fit person, you do need to be physically and mentally able. Reduced oxygen levels are often the cause of an unsuccessful attempt.

It also gets pretty cold up there. As there are a number of alternatives, we will help you select the most appropriate route for your abilities, and will prepare you well.

Your route up will take you through various climate zones and vegetation types – scrub, forest, alpine – and as you climb you will be awed by the panoramas that unfold before you. And you are sure to enjoy the camaraderie and spirit of adventure, thanks to the friendly professionalism of the guides who will accompany your group.

The trek will take between five and 10 days depending on the route and your personal fitness. We will provide all the necessary equipment and food, and our skilled, experienced guides will take great care of you all the way up and down. At the end, the whole experience will leave you with the greatest of sense of achievement.
