Summary
editDescriptionLascar Jumping at the summit of the the tallest freestanding mountain on earth (3408927879).jpg | Mount Kilimanjaro is an inactive stratovolcano in north-eastern Tanzania. At 5,891.8 metres (19,330 ft) it is the tallest freestanding mountain on earth; and as the highest point in Africa, Uhuru Peak is one of the Seven Summits (The highest mountains of each of the seven continents). Due to Kilimanjaro's equatorial location and high elevation, almost every climate type on earth is represented, including a year-round snow-topped summit. While it is inactive, Kilimanjaro has fumaroles that emit gas in the crater on the main summit of Kibo. Scientists concluded in 2003 that molten magma is just 400 metres (1,310 ft) below the summit crater. Several collapses and landslides have occurred on Kibo in the past, one creating the area known as the Western Breach.There are several routes by which to climb Mt Kilimanjaro, namely, Marangu, Rongai, Lemosho, Shira, Umbwe and Machame. Of all the routes, Machame is by far the most scenic albeit steeper route up the mountain, which can be done in 6 or 7 days. The Rongai is the easiest camping route and the Marangu is also easy, but accommodation is in huts. As a result, this route tends to be very busy and ascent and descent routes are the same [Edited from Wikipedia.org] |
