Climb Mount Meru, Tanzania with a local

Hosted by

Guided trip
Join me in this wonderful trip scaling Mount Meru, good option for those who do not have time to climb Kilimanjaro and for those who wish to acclimatize before the roof of Africa and experience the wildlife as well 🌎 Let me tell you about the trip: Mt Meru overnights are inside of basic huts. At lower elevations, there is an abundance of wildlife so park regulations require an armed park ranger to accompany all climbers. Fewer people have problems with AMS on Meru due to the climb being steeper than Kilimanjaro, forcing climbers to proceed more slowly (allowing better adjustment to the altitude) and the lower altitude. The packing list for the climb is identical to Mt Kilimanjaro. The scenery is quite lovely throughout the climb, from the lush vegetation at the lower altitudes, to the collapsed ash cone on the mountain, and under good weather conditions, Mt Kilimanjaro is easily seen from Socialist Peak (Meru’s highest point). We welcome you to experience this challenging climbing experience. The Itinerary will be the follow: DAY 1: Pickup from Kilimanjaro International Airport to Salinero Hotel in Moshi DAY 2: Momella gate(1500M) to Miriakamba hut (altitude 2500m) overnight DAY 3: Miriakamba Huts to Saddle Hut (3500m). Dinner and overnight at Saddle Hut. DAY 4: Saddle Hut ascend to summit of Mt. Meru (4565m) to Miriakamba Hut dinner and overnight.
