Trekking

Tanzania attracts millions of tourists with its epic landscapes, ancient cultures, iconic wildlife, and savannahs to tropical beaches. The mystical high peaks make this world-famous holiday destination a dream for adventurers.

Tanzania attracts mountaineers, trekkers, and adventurers with its stunning volcanic mountains. These mountain treks are scenic and non-technical, but they require stamina and fitness. Tanzania Trekking Adventures are guided by companies that prioritize safety and health.

Three stunning volcanic peaks are trekkers’ paradise.

• Kilimanjaro: With a height of 5,895 meters, Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest free-standing mountain in the world. It has three volcanic cones: Kibo, Mawenzi, and Shira. Kilimanjaro is a non-technical hike, but it demands a good level of physical fitness. It takes around 5-9 days to complete the climb depending on the route chosen.
• Mt. Meru: With a height of 4,562 meters, Mt. Meru is the fifth highest mountain in Africa and the second highest peak in Tanzania. It is located in Arusha National Park and offers stunning views of the park’s wildlife and scenery. The climb usually takes 3-4 days, and it is also a non-technical hike.
• Ol Doinyo Lengai: With a height of 2,878 meters, Ol Doinyo Lengai is an active volcano and is located in the Gregory Rift, south of Lake Natron. It is considered a sacred mountain by the Maasai people, and climbing it requires a good level of fitness. The climb takes around 6-8 hours, and it is also a non-technical hike. The mountain is unique because it has a rare volcanic eruption that spews natrocarbonatite lava.
