Mt. Kilimanjaro

Ascending Mount Kilimanjaro is a journey of a lifetime that takes you to the highest point on the African continent. Standing at $5,895\text{m}$ ($19,341\text{ft}$), Uhuru Peak is the crown of this massive dormant stratovolcano and the tallest free-standing mountain in the world. What makes the Kilimanjaro trek truly extraordinary is its ecological diversity; over the course of a single week, you will traverse five distinct climate zones—starting in lush, equatorial rainforests and moving through moorlands and alpine deserts before reaching the glaciated arctic zone at the summit. Under the expert leadership of Giripremi Adventure Foundation (GAF), your Kilimanjaro expedition is designed for maximum safety and success. We primarily utilize the Machame Route (the "Whiskey Route"), strategically paced over 7 days to ensure optimal acclimatization through the "walk high, sleep low" principle. You will navigate iconic landmarks like the Shira Plateau, the towering Lava Tower, and the thrilling Barranco Wall. Our professional mountaineering team provides constant health monitoring, including oxygen saturation checks, to manage the challenges of high altitude effectively.
