Tour Details

Mount Meru is situated in the core of Arusha National Park in Tanzania and is incredible for climbing. It is generally prescribed to trek Mt. Meru as a “Warm-up” before summiting Mt. Kilimanjaro as it is a good plan for elevation acclimatization. Notwithstanding, the trek to Mount Meru in itself is a compensating background. Mount Meru has striking perspectives and assorted vegetation, as well as allows us to observe natural life amid your trek. Likewise Mount Meru trekking is less swarmed than Mt. Kilimanjaro course.

Amid your trek you may run over creatures, for example, giraffes, wild oxen, elephants, gazelles, mandrills, colobus monkeys and fluctuated types of feathered creatures.

The whole edge stroll on Mount Meru is a breath-taking climb and offers 360 degree views from the summit of Meru and furthermore you can observer Mt. Kilimanjaro from MountMeru’s pinnacle, which is an exciting background.

In contrast to Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru has just a single authority Mount Meru course to the summit – the ‘Momella route’.The ascension to the volcano Mt. Meru is a perfect preparation for the conquest of Kilimanjaro. You can get used to the heights (around 15.000 feet) and it is possible to test out the equipment, so that you will be able to correct and improve it at the rest day that lies between the climbing of Kilimanjaro. But the most important thing is to practice ascending at night since it is not very pleasant to do this when it is almost dark and quite cold.
