Towering over Tanzania at 5,895 meters, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest freestanding mountain in the world. Once an active volcano, the last recorded seismic activity at Kili was over 200 years ago, and there have been no major eruptions for over 100,000 years.

The most famous photos of Kili are taken from Amboseli National Park in Kenya, although the majority of summit hikes begin in Tanzania. The ascent to the summit is not technical, Kili has a slow slope which makes it accessible even to less experienced hikers.

The summit hike usually lasts 6-8 days. If you are more limited on time, there are shorter hikes that don't take you to the summit. The origin of its name is unclear - many believe it to be a mixture of the word kilima ("mountain" in the Tanzanian national language, Swahili) and the word njoro (which in kiChagga, the local language, loosely translates as "whiteness", in reference to its snow-capped peaks).
