    15 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE CLIMBING MOUNT-KILIMANJARO!!!


    1. IT'S ONE OF THE “SEVEN SUMMITS”
    The name refers to the highest peak on each continent, and at 19,341’ Kilimanjaro ranks as not only the highest mountain in Africa, but as the highest free-standing mountain in the world! That’s a serious achievement, whether or not you’re a hardcore climber! 2.YOU DON'T NEED ANY TECHNICAL SKILL TO CLIMB IT; Realistically, Kilimanjaro is a very long, very high-altitude hike. Anyone who’s reasonably fit can reach the summit; kids as young as 7 have done it, and an octogenarian couple—aged 84 and 86—have also reached the top. You don’t need special training (or karabiners and ropes) to climb Kili, just the desire to reach the summit!

    3. IT'S A SERIOUS CHALLENGE;
    We know, we just said almost anyone can do it. And they can…but it will be a serious challenge. Reaching Uhuru Peak is an achievement you can be proud of; if it were easy, it wouldn’t be such a special feeling.
    4.YOU'LL SEE THINGS YOU CAN SEE NOWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD;
    We’ve been focusing on the destination, but the journey up Kilimanjaro is unforgettable. From the black-and-white Colobus monkeys swinging through the rainforest canopy to the giant, alien-looking groundsel plants in the moorland, Kilimanjaro is teeming with amazing flora, fauna, and scenery. Much of it can be found nowhere else on earth!

    5. THE VIEWS AT THE TOP ARE INDESCRIBABLE;
    Have you ever heard the phrase “I feel like I’m on top of the world?”
    It’s so common that we think of it as a cliché, but once you reach the “Roof of Africa,” actually looking down on the rolling banks of clouds below, you’ll understand just how meaningful—and beautiful—those few words can be. Once you reach Uhuru Peak, see its sparkling glaciers and the craggy spikes of Mawenzi floating above a cloud sea, you’ll appreciate your accomplishment even more....and hopefully snap a few picture


    6. Paradoxically, Kilimanjaro is both remote and accessible. Kilimanjaro is located in Tanzania,
    7. Kilimanjaro remains surprisingly pristine. While the base camp of Everest is strewn with trash, Kilimanjaro National Park is surprisingly clean.
