Kilimanjaro Location, location of Mount Kilimanjaro has previously confused many people. Now you can read about the correct location. Kilimanjaro is located just (Location: 3.07 S, 37.35 E) near the equator, in the Tropical Country yet its peak is covered by snow throughout the year. Rising abruptly from the open plains, capped by snow and frequently fringed by clouds, it is one of Africa’s classic images. For example, you can take a unique Kilimanjaro trip through the Machame route for 7 days overnight at Crater Kilimanjaro. Kilimanjaro expedition with Kilimanjaro volcano crater overnight offers an exhilarating view of eastern ice fields and large glaciers.




Kilimanjaro is a majestic Mountain shrouded in mist, mystery, and legend. It attracts a large number of climbers, naturalists, and explorers every year, each determined to conquer its majestic heights. Without following designated routes it can be difficult for Climber to reach the summit, which many Europeans attempted. Take these vivid examples; finally, Rebmann was the first European to have sighted Mt. Kilimanjaro in 1848, and it was not until 1889 when Hans Meyer successfully scaled the summit.

Mountain climbing is exhilarating, beautiful, and challenging. As thousands of Tourists climb Mt. Kilimanjaro every year, our guides gain experience, explore and narrate all that is new in Mt. Kilimanjaro geology, Forests, wild animals, weather, and tips on successful climbing to the top. Group booking is a great chance for a big discount on all Kilimanjaro prices. A tour Leader or International Mountain guide can gather people and form a group for the Kilimanjaro climbing challenge. Or Individual solo travelers can contact Kilimanjaro Tanzanite Safaris Co.Ltd to join the existing Kilimanjaro trip group


Mt. Kilimanjaro Formation/Genesis, Kilimanjaro is a giant stratovolcano reaching an elevation of 19,335.6 ft. (5,895 m). Is one of the largest volcanoes ever to burst through the earth’s crust. Africa's tallest mountain, with its white peak, is one of the most instantly recognizable sights in the world. But as this aerial photograph shows, Kilimanjaro's trademark snowy cap, at 5,895 meters (19,340ft), is now all but gone - 15 years before scientists predicted it would melt through global warming. The latest UN reposts suggest that the Kilimanjaro glacier will melt in the year 2030. 

Kilimanjaro is a dormant, but not extinct Volcano. Ominous rumbles can sometimes be heard and gases emerge from the fume holes in the crater. Although it is just three degrees south of the Equator, the peaks of both Kibo and Mawenzi have permanent caps of Snow and Ice.

A little more legend about this Highest Volcanic Mountain which is crowned by Snow! Other names for this volcano are Kilima Dscharo, Oldoinyo Oibor (White Mountain in Masai), and Kilima Njaro meaning shining mountain in Swahili. This volcano's highest and youngest cone is named Kibo. Its outstanding features are its three major volcanic centers, Shira (4269m) in the West, Mawenzi (5280) in the East, and the Snow-capped Kibo in the center (5895m). Kibo has not been active in modern times, but steam and sulfur are still emitted. At the top of Kibo's summit is a 1 1/2 mile (2 1/4 Km) wide crater. Kilimanjaro is the largest of an E-W belt of about 20 volcanoes near the southern end of the East African Rift Valley. Its slopes and glaciers shimmer above the rising clouds and one of the greatest Volcanoes on Earth.


Mount Kilimanjaro is the crown of Open plains, capped by snow and frequently by clouds; it is one of Africa’s classic images. The diameter of its base is an incredible 40 miles. Besides the peaks and Moorland, the peaks consist of Montane forest with relics of old vegetation.

Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest Mountain in Africa 5895m/19340 ft. is the only Mountain in the World with the perfect symmetrical crater. Is it the highest free-standing mountain in the World?

Is a metaphor for the compelling beauty of East Africa. Kilimanjaro is one of the highest walkable summits on the planet, a beacon for visitors from around the world. As well as “all the World, Great, High and unbelievably white” was Ernest Hemingway’s description in his book ‘the Snows of Kilimanjaro’.


KILIMANJARO NATURE, CULTURE and Ultimately successful Climb

Lowlands and even relatively high sheltered valleys can reach temperatures as high as 30 degrees centigrade by day, nighttime temperatures generally fall below zero and even -20-degree centigrade. Old Moshi culture center has a German museum that shows old German Berlin colonial rule. This is one of the places to do day tours in Moshi. More day tours in Moshi apart from German Museum are waterfalls and Coffee tours.

The cloud cover over the rainforest tends to be denser. In Mt.Kilimanjaro National Park must be noted that Kilimanjaro has a typical Montane climate –unpredictable even in the ‘driest ‘season. A bright clear morning on Shira Plateau can turn to rain and Sleet in the Afternoon as the hot air rises from the lowland valleys and gathers moisture from the rainforest.Get prepared for the high-altitude sun that can burn the skin severely and for cold nights that demand four-season sleeping bags and good thermal clothing.


Kilimanjaro Tribe - Cultural Tour, Today the main African Tribe to inhabit the Kilimanjaro foothill region is the Wachagga People. Most importantly they form the largest tribal group involved in the Operation of Kilimanjaro climbs. Wachagga is adapted so well and so cheerfully to the task of guiding and looking after the “Wageni” as they pour into Tanzanian their thousands to climb the big Mountain. It is clearly narrated in many Literature that the First White Man (European) – A GermanHans Meyer to conquer Mt. Kilimanjaro in the year 1889 was led by Chagga Guide (Mr.YOHANA LAUWO) to the Top 5895m/19340ft.
Kilimanjaro Trails. Austrian Mountaineer and Geographer, Ludwig 
Purtscheller accompanied Hans Meyer in 1889. However, before this successful summit, other strangers from outside Africa had seen Kilimanjaro and tried to climb. Johannes Rebmann (January 16, 1820 – October 4, 1876) was a German missionary and explorer credited with feats including being the first European, along with his colleague Johann Ludwig Krapf to see Kilimanjaro from the Indian Ocean Mombasa.


During their time on the Mountain, climbers pass from a tropical to an arctic environment in just a few 5/6/7 days. The climber can use one of these routes to climb the Mountain; These are Marangu (Coca-cola), Machame ( Whisky), Rongai, Shira, and Umbwe route/trail. Old Moshi cultural center is a museum for German historical colonial rule in Moshi town. Tourists visit the museum for colonial historical studies, Chagga culture educational studies, visit waterfalls and coffee tours.




Kilimanjaro Tanzanite Safaris Ltd Professional Mountain Guides will be happy to tell you more details about these routes, at the right time. The various trails first pass through lush rainforests before reaching heather and open moorland where giant lobelia and huge cactus-like groundsel grow.




Above moorland is the almost lunar landscape of an alpine desert which stretches between the two peaks of Kibo, the flat-topped dome at the center, and Mawenzi, a group of jagged points and pinnacles on the eastern side. Inhospitable as this “moonscape” may seem, animals such as herds of eland thrive there.

Proceed Climbing after rewarding the Narration of Mount Kilimanjaro. The highest point on Kibo and indeed the whole of Kilimanjaro is Uhuru Peak, with its spectacular hanging glaciers and stupendous views of the African plains some 20000 feet below. Also on Kibo is the slightly lower peak of Gillman’s Point. These are the goals for most trekkers. The peaks of Mawenzi are for Mountaineers only. With the Help of Porters and a Guide, it is possible to walk all the way to the summit without specialized Mountaineering equipment or experience and Kilimanjaro can be conquered by any reasonably fit person. There are several different routes including Marangu (Coca-cola route), the easiest climb, and therefore the most popular; Other routes are Machame, Rongai, Lemosho/Londorosi Shira, Mweka, and Umbwe.
