Kilimanjaro, highest mountain in
Africa, located in northeastern
Tanzania, near the
border with
Kenya. Kilimanjaro is a dormant volcano. Its two peaks
stand 11 km (7 mi) apart and are connected by a broad ridge. Kibo, the higher
peak, rises to 5,895 m (19,341 ft) above
sea level, and the summit
of Mawenzi is 5,149 m (16,893 ft) above sea level. Although Kilimanjaro lies 3°
south of the equator, an ice cap covers the crater of Kibo year-round; this ice
cap is pierced by several small craters. “The Snows of Kilimanjaro” (1938), one
of the most famous stories of American writer
Ernest Hemingway, is
set in the region. Kilimanjaro has a number of different vegetation zones on its
steep slopes.
Coffee and plantains are grown on the lower slopes of
Kilimanjaro. The mountain was successfully scaled for the first time in 1889 by
German geographer Hans Meyer and Austrian mountain climber Ludwig Purtscheller.if you want to do it please in touch with us for more information
