Trekking guide to Kilimanjaro - Trailblazer

Productomschrijving: Kilimanjaro - The trekking guide to Africa's highest mountain. At 5895 metres (19,341ft) Kilimanjaro is Africa’s highest mountain. Yet with no mountaineering skills necessary to reach the summit, even non-climbers can experience the thrill of climbing one of the world’s greatest peaks. Taking you from the dusty plains of East Africa through jungle and moorland to the glacier-clad summit, this is one of the most beautiful and challenging treks there is. 

Includes: Mount Meru - Arusha - Moshi - Marangu - Nairobi - Dar a Salaam
