About this experience
A day hike in Kilimanjaro National Park allows you to experience what climbing the mountain is like without having to make the grueling trek to the peak. Africa's highest and most famous mountain, Mt. Kilimanjaro, lies at 5,895 meters above sea level and a full hike takes between six and eight days. Visit this famous park over one day and enjoy the forests of the lower slopes. Have lunch in the park before hiking back down to the gate.
