Mount Meru is one of the most majestic backdrops ever imagined, picturesque and sister peak to Africa’s highest summit, Mount Kilimanjaro dominates the Arusha national park with its huge cliffs. Keeper of myths and legends for decades, this magnificent mountain is a photographer’s Mecca. Mount Meru is an active (but dormant) volcanic mountain located north of Arusha city, Tanzania. At 4562 meters Mount Meru is Tanzania’s second highest mountain and the fourth highest mountain in Africa.
The mountain became well known mainly because it is only 70 km from Mount Kilimanjaro and Its popularity as a “warm up” trek for Kilimanjaro climbers. However, the technical necessities are greater on Mount Meru than on the Kilimanjaro Routes. On the four-day trekking tour, you will see giraffes, buffalos, antelopes and baboons and passing through waterfalls and amazing Meru streams therefore, for safety purpose an assigned park ranger will accompany a group.
