Kilimanjaro, located in northeastern Tanzania, is home to Africa’s highest peak—Mount Kilimanjaro—rising majestically to 5,895 meters above sea level. This iconic mountain, a dormant volcano with three cones (Kibo, Mawenzi, and Shira), draws adventurers from around the world seeking to conquer its snow-capped summit. Surrounded by Kilimanjaro National Park, the region offers rich biodiversity, from lush rainforests and alpine meadows to rare wildlife species.
The area is also culturally vibrant, inhabited by the Chagga people, known for their farming traditions and warm hospitality. Moshi, the main town near the mountain, serves as a base for climbers and a center for coffee production. Kilimanjaro’s slopes support fertile agriculture, including bananas, maize, and coffee.
