## Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro

It's easy to lose your heart at Mt Kilimanjaro. Although easily reached by road from Arusha, it's a world away from the everyday, with vast, larger-than-life landscapes filled with an abundance of life. From ancient, towering baobabs and huge herds of elephants often hundreds strong to more than 500 bird species and plains game aplenty, there's so many reasons to fall in love with this incredible place.

Mt Kilimanjaro

### Location

Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest peak and the world's highest free-standing mountain, is a captivating geographical marvel nestled in northeastern Tanzania, near the border with Kenya. Its majestic silhouette rises dramatically from the East African plains, dominating the landscape with its snow-capped summit glistening under the equatorial sun. Situated approximately 200 miles south of the equator, Kilimanjaro stands at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet) above sea level, making it a beacon for climbers and adventurers worldwide.

### How long does it take to climb Kilimanjaro?

Most expeditions last 6 to 8 days. An experienced hiker with prior acclimatization usually climbs Kilimanjaro through an accelerated 5-day program. If you stay overnight in the crater, Kilimanjaro climbs can take 9 days or longer. Among the Seven Summits, the Kilimanjaro trek is one of the shortest. For example, climbing Mount Everest takes 6-9 weeks, Denali and Aconcagua- 2-3 weeks. Kilimanjaro takes about one week only.

### Activities

Mt Kilimanjaro is located on its own reserve, allowing for certain activities like night drives and walking safaris that are not offered at our camps inside the Serengeti National Park. This makes it the perfect complement to a stay in either Serengeti or Mara, or both. We also give guests the chance to visit one of our nearby Maasai communities to learn more about this fascinating culture - something that is not logistically possible at our other lodges. It is also possible to arrange a private day trip to nearby Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater, at an additional cost.

## In addition to these activities we also offer the following:

- Morning and afternoon game drives
- Bush lunches & dinners
- Spa therapies and wellness treatments
- Dedicated children's activities
- Hot air balloon flights
- Fly and bush camping
- Sundowners in the bush
- Maasai boma experience
- Maasai cultural interaction
- Champagne bush breakfasts
- Walking safaris
- Private day trips to Manyara and
  Ngorongoro (at an additional cost)
