Mount Kilimanjaro

The roof of Africa.

At 5,895 m, Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa and one of the world's seven summits - a climb for experienced hikers and first-timers alike.

About the mountain

A snow-capped peak above the savannah.

Mount Kilimanjaro stands 5,895 m high, 75 km from Moshono Hillside. It's the tallest mountain in Africa and one of the world's seven summits - hugely popular not only for its beauty, but because it's considered the easiest of the seven to climb. Its snow-capped peak rises in majestic isolation above the surrounding plains.

Five climate zones

A climb passes through five distinct worlds:

  • Cultivated zone - 800 to 1,800 m
  • Rainforest zone - 1,800 to 2,800 m
  • Heather & moorland - 2,800 to 4,000 m
  • Alpine desert - 4,000 to 5,000 m
  • Arctic zone - above 5,000 m

We can help arrange a guided climb to fit your fitness and your dates - just ask the front desk.
