Kilimanjaro Climbing
All Trekking Routes and Tours to Kilimanjaro
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania
Second highest Mountain in the World.
Mount Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa, and the highest free-standing mountain above sea level in the world, at 5,895 m (19,341 ft) above sea level and 4,900 m (16,100 ft) above its plateau base meaning it is not part of an actual mountain range. Mount Kilimanjaro is considered a stratovolcano, made up of layers of hardened lava, volcanic ash, and tephra, forming three separate volcanic peaks. Two of the peaks are considered to be extinct – Mawenzi and Shira, and the third peak, Kibo, the highest, is considered dormant but not yet extinct, with the last volcanic activity occurring approximately 200,000 years ago.
Mount Kilimanjaro has 7 main routes which lead to the summit Uhuru Peak. One Kilimanjaro route starts on the North part of the mountain and the rest on the South part. Those routes are Marangu route, Machame route, Lemosho route, Shira route, Rongai route, Northern Circuit and Umbwe route. Our safariparksoutreach organise to trekking with 3 routes which are Marangu route, Machame route and Lemosho route.
