3-Day Mount Meru Hiking Tour

Mt. Meru trekking tour is an excellent preparatory hike for climbing Kilimanjaro or a spectacular trek for those not compelled to summit Kilimanjaro. You will hike past wildlife, a stunning landscape, and see a beautiful sunrise on the summit with Kilimanjaro as the backdrop. While typically done in only four days, it is not an easy peak to summit. To reach the top, there is some scrambling on rocks in the dark and at high altitudes.
