On the other hand, Climbing Kilimanjaro does not require any technical skills or special equipment, just some physical fitness and determination.

Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the tallest freestanding mountain on earth. Crowned with an everlasting snow-cap, this majestic mountain can be found inside the Kilimanjaro National Park of Tanzania. Traditionally Mount Kenya is the less climbed, smaller brother of Mount Kilimanjaro, however, it should not be underestimated and many people who have climbed it prefer the wilderness, abundant wildlife and stunning mountain lakes that you find on Mount Kenya.

The panoramic views of the surrounding peaks, valleys, and savannah make a trek on this mountain a thoroughly enjoyable African experience.
