HIGHLIGHTS
- Mt Meru is the 5th highest mountain in Africa and is only 70 km from Mount Kilimanjaro
- Mount Meru is an active (but dormant) volcano located north of Arusha in Tanzania
- The route passes over watercourse, parkland, montane forest, heather zone and moorland
At 4,566 m Mt Meru is the fifth highest mountain on the African continent and the second highest in Tanzania. About 250,000 years ago, a massive volcanic eruption blew away the entire eastern flank of the mountain and left it with the distinctive appearance it has today.
The mountain became well known mainly because it is only 70 km from Mount Kilimanjaro. Mt. Meru has become a popular "warm up" trek for Kilimanjaro climbers.
Mt. Meru is located within Arusha National Park, and usually the climber can start the trip from Moshi or Arusha, in Northern Tanzania. This major location provides Mount Meru climbers the chance to spot some wildlife that naturally inhabits the area.
The ascend is fairly steep and the route to the summit passes over watercourse, through parkland, montane forest, a giant heather zone and moorland.
The summit is made by a narrow, barren ridge, which gives spectacular views of the Ash Cone lying several thousand feet below in the crater.

“Amazing team and experience! Attention to tipping. The trip itself went absolutely flawlessly, just make sure you are aware of how many porters you will have and how much you have to tip each person, its an additional cost worth considering. Other than that, great people, delicious food and an amazing trip!
I would definitely recommend this to anyone with an adventure sense and a challenge in mind.”

“Everything about the 7 days Machame route to climb the Kilimanjaro was great. Communication, guides, chef, porters, were excellent. They really took care of us!
Me and my son had a unforgettable trip. Thank you Nol, Anton, Gilbert, and all the others who accompanied us. We will never forget you.”

“Noel organised a fantastic safari for me which was 6 days in Northern Tanzania visiting Tarangire National park, lake Manyara, Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti. I had lots of questions before the trip which Noel was able to answer through phone and email. And then met me before the safari and after the safari. I went solo with the guide/driver and the cook. It was a fantastic experience and I had such a great time. The guide was excellent - keen, enthusiastic and was knew all the different animals and birds. The food was good and the tent/ 4 wheel drive comfortable. The only thing that was not good was the campsite in Serengeti but this was not Enosa's fault but the Serengeti Park authorities who just do not maintain their campsites.
Would highly recommend booking with Enosa.”
