Mount Meru, Tanzania’s second-highest peak, is an awe-inspiring destination for adventurers and nature lovers. Standing at 4,562 meters, this dormant stratovolcano is located within Arusha National Park, just 70 kilometers from Mount Kilimanjaro. Known for its dramatic landscapes and rich biodiversity, Mount Meru offers a rewarding trekking experience for those seeking a less crowded alternative to Kilimanjaro.
The trek to Mount Meru’s summit is a thrilling journey through lush rainforests, alpine meadows, and volcanic craters. Along the way, hikers can encounter diverse wildlife, including giraffes, buffaloes, colobus monkeys, and countless bird species. The challenging trails lead to the Socialist Peak, where stunning panoramic views of Mount Kilimanjaro and the surrounding plains await.
Mount Meru is also perfect for acclimatization before a Kilimanjaro climb, offering a shorter yet equally memorable adventure. Combine your trek with a safari in Arusha National Park for an unforgettable experience that blends trekking and wildlife exploration.
