Description
A full day trip to Mount Kilimanjaro will bring you an excellent experience of contemplating the world’s highest free-standing mountain and passing through the mountain forest. The short treks are geared for people who like to hike, but reaching the summit isn’t a “must-do” and allow one to experience the excitement of hiking on the highest peak on the African continent. All trekking inside the Tanzania National Park requires the services of certified guides, and at the moment, the Marangu and Machame Routes are the only two routes where short treks are allowed.
