Summit Africa's highest peak
Mount Kilimanjaro rises to 5,895 metres above sea level and offers one of the world's great trekking experiences. The climb passes through several distinct climate zones, from lush rainforest and open moorland to a stark alpine desert and the glaciated summit slopes.
You do not need technical mountaineering experience, but a successful summit depends on steady preparation, sensible pacing, and enough time to acclimatize. Our experienced guides lead small groups with careful attention to safety, mountain meals, porter welfare, and the conditions on the trail.

Best time to climb
January to March and June to October are the most popular climbing windows because of generally drier trail conditions. The mountain can be climbed year-round, but weather changes quickly at altitude. Adding an acclimatization day is one of the best ways to improve comfort and summit prospects.
