6-Day Mount Meru Climb through Momella Route Guided Tour

Magnetized by Mt Kilimanjaro, the hikers often overlook Mt Meru, the second highest peak of Tanzania. Towering over Arusha National Park, Mount Meru offers both an excellent warm-up exercise for Kilimanjaro, in addition to being a stunning trekking experience in the wild by its own right. Mount Meru trekking is a real adventure. The slopes of this dormant (yet active - the last eruption was in 1910) volcano offer fascinating panoramic vistas and bustling wildlife around. This volcano was “born” around 500,000 years ago, and its very first eruption virtually exploded its eastern side, creating its, peculiar appearance. In addition to that, Mt Meru has one of the deepest craters - over 1,500 meters! Our licensed, Wilderness First Responder-certified mountain guides will be leading your way. Altezza Travel mountain crew will take care of all camping arrangements, meals and other expedition essentials. Unlike a shorter 3-day variation, this Mt Meru features an extra on the descent.
