Africa's highest mountain, and the highest free-standing mountain in the world, Tanzania's
Mount Kilimanjaro reigns supreme as (arguably) the best bucket list trek in the world. Taking on such altitude is a real challenge, and this is the appeal of Kili for walking enthusiasts. Opting for the
Lemosho Trek route or
Rongai Trek route means the greatest chances of success, giving you longer to acclimatise and take in the beauty of the mountain and the vast plains that surround it. From camping under star-lit skies, or spotting colobus monkeys in the trees, to watching the sunrise over the plains from the summit, this is a once-in-a-lifetime trek.
