Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest free-standing mountain in the world. It has its own ecosystem which includes every type of environment on earth and takes you, in one trek, from the Equator to the Arctic! You will go through lush, tropical forest, across alpine meadows, desert uplands, and to the snow and ice peaks of the summit. The Machame route is a challenging, very scenic route. You will have 7 days hiking and 6 nights camping on the mountain. It is a hugely rewarding experience on a popular, but not yet overcrowded route.
