Mount Meru

Rising to 4,566 metres, Mount Meru is Africa's fifth highest peak and one of Tanzania's most rewarding climbs. Located in Arusha National Park, it offers diverse ecosystems, stunning wildlife encounters, and a challenging but achievable summit.

Many climbers use Mount Meru as excellent acclimatisation preparation for Kilimanjaro — and its dramatic crater rim and ash cone make for unforgettable photography.
