Kilimanjaro is located near the town of Moshi and is a protected area, carefully regulated for climbers to enjoy without leaving a trace of their presence. The mountain\u2019s ecosystems are as strikingly beautiful as they are varied and diverse. On the lowland slopes, much of the Mountain is farmland, with coffee, banana, cassava, and maize crops grown for subsistence and cash sale. A few larger coffee farms still exist on the lower slopes, but much of the area outside the national park has been subdivided into small plots. Once inside the park, thick lowland forest covers the lower altitudes and breaks into alpine meadows once the air begins to thin. Near the Peak, the Landscape is harsh and barren, with rocks and ice being the predominant features above a breathtaking African view. Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro is the highlight of many visitors\u2019 experiences in Tanzania. Few mountains can claim the grandeur and the views of Amboseli National Park in Kenya, the Rift Valley, and the Maasai steppe \u2013 that belong to Kilimanjaro. Hiking on the\u00a0<strong>\u201crooftop of Africa\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0is the adventure of a lifetime, and anyone from a seasoned trekker to a reasonably fit first time enthusiast can scale the snowy peak.<\/p><p><strong>CRATER HIGHLANDS<\/strong><\/p><p>Rising up from the floors of the Rift Valley, the Crater Highlands form a lush chain of mountains and volcanoes that includes the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority (NCAA) and the surrounding Maasai tribal lands. Hiking safaris take visitors from Ngorongoro crater to the foot of OL DONYO LENGAI and offer a chance to see some of the most spectacular and stunning scenery in Tanzania. Exploring this little &#8211;\u00a0 visited wilderness is the hiking adventure of a lifetime. Within the crater rim, large herds of zebra and wildebeest graze nearby while sleeping lions laze in the sun. At dawn, the endangered black rhino return to the thick cover of the crater forests after roaming the dew \u2013 laden grasslands in the morning mist. \u00a0Just outside the crater\u2019s ridge, Maasai herd their cattle and goats over green pastures through the highland slopes, living alongside the wildlife as they have for centuries.<\/p><p><strong>EASTERN ARC MOUNTAINS RANGE<\/strong><\/p><p>Stretching from the Taita Hills of southern Kenya to the southern highlands of Tanzania, the Eastern Arc Mountains Range has some of the oldest geological activity on the continent. Estimated to be at least 100 million years old with some formations up to 600 million years old \u2013 the relative stability of their climate means that the area hosts a surprising array of biodiversity, from plant and insect life, to spectacular bird species.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a80137a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a80137a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f6ccad elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0f6ccad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">BOOK YOUR HIKING WITH US<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-388b1de e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"388b1de\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52db708 elementor-widget elementor-widget-form\" data-id=\"52db708\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"form.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background information by edgardowelelo@yahoo.com Tanzania\u2019s mountain ranges are grouped into a north \u2013 eastern\u00a0(The Eastern Arch, and a central and Southern Arch\u00a0(The Southern highlands or Southern Arch).\u00a0There is also a belt of volcanic peaks in the central north of the country near the Ngorongoro crater (Crater highlands, and a narrow, low \u2013 lying coastal strip [&hellip;]<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"two_page_speed":[],"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3137","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3137"}],"version-history":[{"count":31,"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3137\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3614,"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3137\/revisions\/3614"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/domestictourismsafaris.co.tz\/site2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
