Climb Mount Meru – Tanzania’s Scenic Second-Highest Peak

Rising to 4,566 meters, Mount Meru is a breathtaking dormant volcano and the second-highest mountain in Tanzania. Located within Arusha National Park, it offers a challenging yet highly rewarding trek—perfect for climbers seeking an off-the-beaten-path adventure or preparing for Mount Kilimanjaro.

Often regarded as the ideal acclimatization climb before Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru boasts its own spectacular rewards: from diverse wildlife sightings along the lower slopes to panoramic views of the Great Rift Valley and snow-capped Kilimanjaro visible from the summit.
