Kilimanjaro National Park Day Trip

Early in the morning we will collect you from your hotel for an exciting day in Tanzania’s wilderness. As we make our way to West Kilimanjaro, we will pass through a forest reserve where you may spot Colobus Monkeys in the canopy. Your hike will begin at 3,500m above sea level on the rugged terrain of Shira Plateau. Take a moment to appreciate the sights, smells, and colors of Tanzania’s stunning wilderness as you lace up your shoes. Accompanied by a ranger, you will traverse different trails and enjoy magnificent views of Kibo, and Kilimanjaro’s northern glaciers, if the weather permits. The vast plains of Amboseli National Park in Kenya and the deep gorge of the Simba River provide a striking contrast to the world’s highest free-standing mountain. When you reach the northern rim of Shira Crater, take a moment to stop at various observation points and admire the volcanic cones dotting the landscape below. Hike at your own pace and enjoy a picnic lunch under the open sky along the way. This moderate hike is suitable for all, but at 3,500m, the air is thinner, so take your time and savor the untouched landscapes and the presence of the mighty Kilimanjaro. After a 4-hour hike we will return you to your hotel.
