The roof of Africa. Top of Kilimanjaro. Tanzania


I just I've done it! Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain, is a magnet for trekkers and climbers the world over. This challenging trek took us along the beautiful Machame route that approaches Kilimanjaro from the south, through dense tropical rainforest all the way up to the snow capped summit at 5896m for simply breathtaking views. This is a tough but spectacularly rewarding route. On reaching the summit we felt a sense of overwhelming achievement, a truly unforgettable challenge. Taking part in the Climb Mt Kilimanjaro challenge we had also a direct impact on communities affected by poverty and hunger. The money raised will help the Concern Tanzanian office to continue their on going work and efforts in country by supporting existing programmes like Food Security and Water and Environmental Health.
