Mount Kilimanjaro Hike: Reaching Uhuru peak is achievable for people of all ages – from 12 to 70+ years old. Yes, you read that right.
There are kids and seniors that conquer Kilimanjaro, so you can too!
Mount Kilimanjaro’s height is 5 895m (19 340ft) and the name of the highest peak is Uhuru Peak.
The second highest point is Stella Point at 5.739m (18.829) and you will reach it 40 minutes before Uhuru.
When to climb Kilimanjaro?
Kilimanjaro is located very close to the Equator, so it is always warm at the bottom of the mountain and, of course, always unpredictable at the top.
That is why almost all months are good for Kilimanjaro trekking. What you want to avoid, though, is the rainy season (mid-March to mid-May and sometimes November).
NOTED:
A word of caution: Physical fitness is great, because you’ll feel better on the mountain. The most successful preparation for Kilimanjaro incorporates a mix of hiking, strength training and cardio.
