Mount Kilimanjaro is composed of three distinct volcanic cones: Kibo 5,895 m (19,341 ft); Mawenzi 5,149 m (16,893 ft); and Shira 3,962 m (13,000 ft). Uhuru Peak is the highest summit on Kibo's crater rim. Kilimanjaro is a large stratovolcano. Two of its three peaks, Mawenzi and Shira, are extinct while Kibo, its highest peak, is dormant and could erupt again. The last major eruption has been dated to between 150,000 and 200,000 years ago. Although it is dormant, Kibo has fumaroles that emit gas in the crater. Several collapses and landslides have occurred on Kibo in the past, one creating the area known as the Western Breach.

Mount Kilimanjaro is a currently inactive strato-volcano in northern Tanzania, near the border with Kenya. At 5,895 metres (19,340 feet) above sea level, Kilimanjaro is Africa's highest peak and the world's highest free-standing mountain. As such - and aided by its relatively easy ascent - Kilimanjaro has become a major destination for mountaineers and trekkers from around the world.
Although positioned close to the Equator (330 km south), Mount Kilimanjaro is famous as Africa's snow-capped mountain looming over the plains of the savannah. In recent years, however, the snows have been fast disappearing. Kilimanjaro National Park protects the area above 2,700 metres (8,850 ft), on the mountain and includes the moorland and highland zones, Shira Plateau, Kibo and Mawenzi peaks. The Park also has six corridors or rights of way through the Kilimanjaro Forest Reserve. The Forest Reserve, which is also a Game Reserve, was established in 1921; the Park was established in 1973 and officially opened in 1977.

Cost
====
The costs outlined below are only indicative and exclude flights to and from Kilimanjaro International Airport. They also exclude all inclusive trips which typically include flights, hotels before and after your climb, park fees, guide team and optional extras.
Before getting to Kilimanjaro
The cost of equipment, visas, vaccinations and medications are often forgotten by prospective climbers. In general you will spend anywhere between $500-$1,500 on equipment as most climbers need to buy an extreme weather sleeping bag, a duffle bag, suitable clothing and other climbing accessories.
You will also need to get a Yellow Fever vaccination as this is a mandatory requirement to enter Tanzania. You might want to get booster injections for Hepatitis A and other related diseases. Seek medical advice from your travel clinic but budget at least $100-$200. Tanzania is a malaria zone; however mosquitoes do not occur at altitude (over 1,800 meters). You will be spending most of your trip above this altitude but will be exposed before and after the climb. If you decide to take malaria tablets budget at least $50
Finally you will be required to get a Tanzanian visa. In 2013 the cost was $50 and for US citizens it is $100. You can get the visa before departing or on arrival in Tanzania.
Organised Tour (incl. Park Fees)
----------------------------------------------
To climb Kilimanjaro you have to use a licenced guide. If you are not well-versed in the logistics of Kilimanjaro climbs then the only realistic way to trek Kilimanjaro is through a tour operator. A no-frills 5 day, 4 night trek up the Marangu will set you back by around $1,100. However, if you are not accustomed to altitude it is highly recommended you take a 6 or 7 day trip which start at over $1,400, depending on the route.
Remember fees for all inclusive packages vary due to factors of route choice and length of climb, but also depend on the quality of the tour operator and service delivery. Do your research and ask as many questions as possible before you decide on a tour operator. Better operators who treat their staff more ethically and employ professional guides who are trained to look after your well-being tend to be more expensive. For a more luxurious climb, you will be set back by as much as $2500-$3,000 for your climb. Luxuries include hot showers, portable toilets, larger more comfortable sleeping tents and mattresses and private transport, etc.
Budget camping safaris usually cost $260 per day and luxury lodge safaris cost $470 per day depending on where you want to stay. The price include all meals and game drives usually in a 4x4 safari vehicle with an open roof.

Travel Tanzania - Mount Kilimanjaro (Highest Mountain)
Take a tour of the imposing and mystical Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats.
Hi, I am Naomi and I am very excited to show you the world's greatest attractions.
It's the tallest and most famous African mountain, and the highest free-standing mountain worldwide.
Majestic Mount Killamanjaro rises above the African plain to the dizzying height of 19,332 feet.
The mountain has three different volcanic cones, Mawenzi, Shira and Kibo.
For most people the lower slopes and surrounding countryside are beautiful enough.
However, many climb the summit, which requires little technical skill though it is a long and difficult climb.
Those who make it will be rewarded with an unparalleled view of the crater and Tanzania.
Thank you for watching our travel video series. See you next time!

In Part 2 of the Kilimanjaro Series, Alex The Vagabond ascends the perilous Western Breach Route to Uhuru Peak, the highest point on the continent of Africa and the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro at 19,341ft (5,895m).
The Roof of Africa is a mysterious volcanic land of rock and ice, where the air is thin and the dangers are plenty. Alex takes you on a 14-hour journey up the near-vertical Western Breach across a volcanic wasteland to a remote glacier field, into the crater of the volcano and finally to the summit of Kilimanjaro at Uhuru Peak. #MtKilimanjaro

현지어로 위대한 산이라는 뜻의 아프리카 최고봉 킬리만자로. 지난 100년간 만년설의 85퍼센트가 사라졌다. 눈앞에 펼쳐진 사막지대. 해발 4000미터 대에 펼쳐진 고산사막을 건너야 마지막 산장인 키보에 도달할 수 있다. 해발 4720미터의 키보 산장. 올려다보던 마웬지 봉이 수평으로 보인다. 희미한 달빛아래 머리에 랜턴을 달고 출발 준비를 한다. 0시25분. 5시간 안에 고도를 1200미터나 올려야 하는 가장 힘든 구간이 시작됐다. 칠흑 같은 어둠속 급경사의 흙과 자갈길이어서 미끄러지기 십상이다. 고산증으로 인한 참을 수 없는 졸음과 두통, 무기력 그리고 추위가 엄습했다. 킬리만자로의 밤은 쉴 새 없이 싸움을 걸어왔다. 분화구의 가장자리, 해발 5685미터의 길맨즈 포인트에 도착했다. 멀리 동쪽으로 여명이 붉게 밝아 온다. 붉은 하늘 아래 구름바다 위로 섬 같이 솟은 마웬지봉이 내려다보인다. 분화구의 동남쪽 가장자리다. 날이 밝자 분화구 안쪽으로 만년설이 보인다. 다른 쪽 등산로로 올라오고 있는 사람들이다. 그 너머로 만년설의 빙하가 보인다. 헤밍웨이의 소설 킬리만자로의 눈에 나오는 눈이 바로 이 눈이다. 일출과 운해, 만년설의 파노라마다. 분화구의 가장자리를 따라 500미터를 더 오르면 또 다른 포인트가 나타난다. 아프리카의 대탐험가 리빙스턴도 이 빙하는 보지 못했다. 다만 산정의 흰 부분이 석영으로 이뤄진 바위라고 추측했을 뿐이다. 1,5km를 더 가니 드디어 아프리카 최고봉 해발5895미터, 자유라는 뜻의 우후르 피크가 모습을 드러낸다. 나는 지금 아프리카 최정상에 서있다. 비록 잠시지만 한 대륙의 최고봉에 서 보았다는 건 일생의 영광이다.

Nature | Elephants of Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro with its three volcanic cones, Kibo, Mawenzi, and Shira, is a dormant volcano in Tanzania. It is the highest mountain in Africa, about 4,900 metres (16,100 ft) from its base to 5,895 metres (19,341 ft) above sea level. The first persons known to have reached the summit of the mountain were Hans Meyer and Ludwig Purtscheller in 1889. The mountain is part of the Kilimanjaro National Park and is a major climbing destination. The mountain has been the subject of many scientific studies because of its shrinking glaciers and disappearing ice fields.
Mount Kilimanjaro conquered (Lemosho to Uhuru Peak, Tanzania, Africa)
The highest free-standing mountain in the World is a bucket list achievement of a life time for many daring travelers. Freewalker led a team up Mount Kilimanjaro through five testing biomes to reach the summit at sunrise on day 6 of the Lemosho Route. The entire crew reached Uhuru Peak and could only have done this with the help of the Guides: Goddy, Tuliza & Monday. visit freewalker.co.za to view our unique adventure packages today.
