Kilimanjaro, towering to 5895m, is the highest peak in Africa yet it is possible to reach the summit without much technical climbing ability. Nevertheless, to make the ascent presents a considerable physical challenge. This thorough and meticulously researched trekking guide is the only one to describe all the ascents, descents & summit trails. It also describes the Circuit Path which circumnavigates Kibo at 4000m and the Momela Route up nearby Mt Meru. The book is illustrated throughout with colour photographs and each route description is complemented by coloured, contoured route maps.
The author also devotes plenty of space to matters of preparation, safety, geography, history, natural history, climate and environmental impact considerations.
