Kilimanjaro National Park is home to Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa and one of the most famous natural landmarks in the world. The park protects not only the mountain itself but also the diverse ecosystems that surround it, from lush rainforest at the base to alpine desert and glaciers at the summit.

Climbing Kilimanjaro is one of the world’s greatest trekking experiences. Travelers walk through several climate zones, starting in warm green forest, passing through heath and moorland, crossing rocky alpine landscapes, and finally reaching the snow-covered summit at Uhuru Peak (5,895 meters). Along the way, climbers experience breathtaking views, dramatic scenery, and a powerful sense of personal achievement.

Even for visitors who do not climb, Kilimanjaro National Park offers beautiful nature, cultural experiences with local communities, and the chance to explore the foothills of Africa’s most iconic mountain.
