Mount Kilimanjaro National Park
Touch the Roof of Africa
Home to the highest free-standing mountain in the world, Mount Kilimanjaro National Park is a place where dreams of standing above the clouds come true. Rising majestically to 5,895 meters (19,341 feet), Mount Kilimanjaro is not only Africa’s highest peak but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, drawing thousands of trekkers and nature lovers each year.
But Kilimanjaro is more than just a climb—it’s a journey through five distinct climate zones, from tropical rainforest to alpine desert and finally to the glacial summit of Uhuru Peak. Whether you’re an experienced mountaineer or a fit first-timer, the experience is life-changing.
