Trekking


One of the most popular trekking holidays in Tanzania is the climb up Mount Kilimanjaro. There are several routes to the summit; these vary in length, duration and physical difficulty. Although Mount Kilimanjaro is not a technical climb, it is, on all routes, a trekking challenge. The Rongai route is considered to be the easiest and most scenic trail; while the Lemosho route is thought to be the most adventurous and the most challenging, yet also the quietest route to the summit.
Alternatively, there is the lesser known, but equally scenic trek to the summit of Mount Meru. This is Mount Kilimanjaro’s neighbouring peak and rises to 4,566 metres. The Mount Meru trek is often done prior to a Kilimanjaro trek as an acclimatisation climb.
Then there is the Crater Highlands. These soar up from the grasslands of the Rift Valley. They form a lush chain of mountains and volcanoes. If this is not enough, then there’s the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the surrounding Masai tribal lands to explore.
