Climb Kilimanjaro *Marangu Route*

Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain on the African continent located in the north-east of Tanzania. Climbing Kilimanjaro is a challenge to say the least and is one of the mountains almost every trekker and mountaineer in the world wants to attempt. Kilimanjaro is 5895m (19,341ft) high, more or less 24 miles wide and 49 miles long; it is more ecosystem than mountain. It dwarfs other regional landmarks like Mt. Meru and Mt. Kenya and dominates the savannah of East Africa. The mountain consists of three snow-capped peaks: Shira, Mawenzi, and Kibo (the highest point of which is Uhuru). We will be climbing Mount Kibo peak in this challenge on the Marangu Route.
