Mount Meru Day Hike or Multi-Day Trek
Climb Mount Meru, the fifth highest peak in Africa, on a trek that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes, including the distant silhouette of Mount Kilimanjaro. Tailor your trek to your fitness level, with options ranging from short day hikes to more challenging multi-day climbs.
Located in the Arusha Region, this dormant volcano is surrounded by the lush greenery of Meru Forest Reserve, which adds a touch of serenity to the rugged terrain. The route takes hikers through diverse ecosystems, from montane forests filled with colorful birds and primates to alpine deserts with panoramic vistas.
The climb to the summit, known as the "Crumbling Peak," provides a rewarding sense of achievement and stunning views of the crater and the distant plains. For those interested in a less strenuous day trip, a shorter hike or nature walk in the foothills of Mount Meru offers a taste of its beauty without the full trek.
