Hiking Mt. Meru

Mount Meru Climb Tours

The second tallest peak in Tanzania is well worth a climb in its own right and is frequently used for acclimatization and as a warm-up climb for Mount Kilimanjaro. Mount Meru is regarded as Kilimanjaro’s smaller brother, although it is nevertheless the fifth tallest peak on the African continent. Come to Mount Meru trekking with Debby Adventure for an unforgettable experience.

Don’t Underrate Mount Meru

While Kilimanjaro is higher and more famous, Mount Meru gives climbers an unforgettable experience. Mount Meru trekking takes you through many regions and has its own breathtaking perspectives, and this mountain is far from little! Meru, at 4,565 metres in height, is a magnificent active strata volcano that lost its whole eastern wall in an 8,000-year-old eruption. 

Mount Meru was given its magnificent horseshoe crater after a major portion of the volcano was blown away, which is still one of its most talked about characteristics today. Mount Meru trekking is difficult due to the steep slopes, and with the distraction of altitude, the climb becomes much more difficult.

Hike Kilimanjaro Little Brother

With Debby Adventure

Mount Meru Trekking Tours

The trip to the summit of Mount Meru takes 3 to 4 days, and you may choose between two hiking alternatives to tackle Meru at a faster or somewhat slower pace. Meru, located in the middle of Arusha National Park, keeps an eye on the park’s outstanding flora and animals and the surrounding city of Arusha. Mount Meru’s lush slopes rise above the savannah. They are home to a diverse range of animals, including approximately 400 bird species, buffalos, leopards, giraffes, and several monkey species like baboons and colobus monkeys.

The prospect of seeing wildlife in its native environment is very appealing for anybody contemplating Mount Meru trekking excursions, and trekkers will be accompanied at all times by armed rangers just in case the wildlife gets a little too near.

The ascent to the summit of this volcano is spectacular, taking us through various plant zones, including meadows, deep and lush green rainforest, heath and moorland around the crater rim, and the alpine desert.

Because Mount Meru hiking is frequently used to acclimate and warm up for the hard trip up Mount Kilimanjaro, we are glad to offer Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru combined excursions. Mount Meru will enthral you with its spectacular panoramas of its surrounds and views of its big brother, Mount Kilimanjaro, to the east, whether you trek it alone or in conjunction with Kilimanjaro.

perfectly arranged experience of a life time We did the Lemosho as a group of 4 people from around 21 years old. From the very first moment we knew that we were in good hands. We were picked up from our lodge which was arranged by Debby Adventures as well. After renting our equipment and meeting the crew, our journey began: we were driving towards the Kilimanjaro. The first day was a hike to the first camp. This hike was mainly in a beautiful jungle scene. The first thing we noticed was the very pleasant way of hiking. Our two guides Anton and Wilfred knew exactly what they did and led the way in an agreeable tempo. After the hike in the wild jungle of Kilimanjaro National Park the night quickly arrived and we were introduced to our personal waiter, Jackson, who brought our food and drinks. Jackson was a great example of the warm and caring staff that joined us on our journey. With an iconic voice and sense of humor he certainly gave a special addition with his presence. That evening we were also introduced to the chef who made food for us every morning, afternoon and evening: Eli. We think that partly because of the excellent food prepared for us, we made it to the peak in such a pleasant fashion. The food was very nutritious and tastful. In the following few days, we made our way up. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. We did not expect so many different landscapes and views. Every night after dinner, Anton or Wilfred did the daily briefing. This is when we discussed the day and answered some questions about how we were feeling and other health-related questions. Also, every night our oxygen level was measured and we experienced it as professional and pleasant. Speaking of professionality, Anton and Wilfred were the best guides to climb the Kilimanjaro with. Their daily advice, carefulness and knowledge about the mountain could not have been better. Before we knew it, summit night arrived. From base camp to the peak took us 6,5 hours which was pretty tough. But we all made it as a group and we could not be happier. The euphoria of getting to the top is indescribable. After descending Debby took such great care of us which made the experience even more perfect. In conclusion, we would recommend this tour to anyone we know. We are a beautiful life experience richer, thanks to Debby and her crew.

An amaizing experience! I have left mount Kilimanjaro with memories that will last a life time with a 6 days Marangu route. It was a great experience, good intro to Mt Kilimanjaro, our guide was super insightful I was impressed with his knowledge of ancient history of Mt Kilimanjaro and all the near places. Everything was planned and organized professionally, Morgan our trip leader was energetic and fun, he looked after us very well.

7 Days Rongai Route with Debby Adventure Before I did the Mount Kilimanjaro trekking (7 days Rongai route) with Debby Adventure, my perception was that not everyone can make it to the top because of the distance, weather conditions and little experience in trekking from people like myself. But when I arrived in Tanzania I jointed a motivated team from Debby Adventure who encouraged and coached me until I made it to the rooftop of Africa. This felt like my dream came true. “Anyone can make it to the rooftop of Africa with such an encouraging team”.
