Mount Kilimanjaro is Africa’s
most famous mountain and is located in northeast Tanzania. The dormant volcano is the highest peak in Africa and belongs to the Mount Kilimanjaro National Park. The volcano has three cones, Kibo is the highest, Shira and Mawensi are the others. The crater of Kibo keeps snows all year despite being very close to the equator. A strenuous climb up the mountain is a very rewarding experience, an excellent adventure. There are organized tours that leave Arusha and Moshi and the climbs can take between five to eight days. The highest mountain has 5895 m (19,340 ft) and extends for a length of 80 km (50 mi). The views are stunning and worth the effort of the climb. Hotels in Tanzania
