Mount Meru, standing at 4,566 meters, is Tanzania’s second-highest peak and offers an exhilarating yet less crowded alternative to Mount Kilimanjaro. The trek to the summit typically takes about 3-4 days, starting from the lush greenery of the Arusha National Park, ascending through diverse landscapes that include montane forests, moorlands, and alpine deserts. The final ascent begins at midnight, allowing climbers to reach the summit at sunrise, where they can enjoy breathtaking views of Kilimanjaro and the Great Rift Valley.
