About Trekking
Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya, and Mount Meru are the three most prominent mountains in East Africa, all formed by volcanic activity and located near the Great Rift Valley. Mount Kilimanjaro (5,895 m) in Tanzania is Africa’s highest peak and the world’s tallest free-standing mountain, famous for its snow-capped summit despite its equatorial location. Mount Kenya (5,199 m) in Kenya is Africa’s second-highest mountain, known for its jagged peaks, glaciers, and rich biodiversity, and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Mount Meru (4,566 m), also in Tanzania and near Kilimanjaro, is an active stratovolcano often used as an acclimatization climb, offering dramatic scenery and diverse wildlife. Together, these mountains are iconic landmarks of East Africa, important for ecology, tourism, and regional climate.
