About this experience
This special hiking tour takes you to Mount Meru which is the first sight you can see when reaching Arusha town. The mountain is with its 4,566 m (14,990 feet) Tanzania's second-highest peak after Kilimanjaro and the fifth-highest in Africa. The mountain has two peaks: Meru Summit, the highest point, and Ash Cone, an additional peak inside the crater which was formed after a more recent volcanic activity. Many hikers use to hike Mount Meru before Kilimanjaro as it helps for the acclimatization.
