Kilimanjaro National Park

Sarah Fox

Nestled on the border of Tanzania and Kenya, Kilimanjaro rises impressively from the surrounding bush to a staggering 19,340 feet making it the tallest mountain in Africa.

As well as providing the adventurous with the challenge of a lifetime, the National Park has a vast mountane forest that is home to elephant, leopard, buffalo, Abbot's duiker, antelope and primates. Those who brave the challenge of climbing the mountain will pass through weather conditions from tropical at the base to arctic at the top. The views from this, the roof of Africa are unparalleled.
