Kilimanjaro is the tallest free-standing, snow-capped tropical mountain in the planet. Stories about her resident man-eating spirits have been consigned to the realms of mythology now that she has been mapped and climbed.<\/p>

Mount Kilimanjaro, on the other hand, maintains a mystique that contradicts all current knowledge of her slopes. Images of Tanzania’s remarkable contrasts, such as the towering snow-covered cone rising majestically from rich green slopes, have become a compelling motif. When the cloud lifts to offer a sight of the towering peaks gleaming brightly in the tropical sun, few can deny a sensation of awe.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

For the indigenous Chagga people and all others who have built their lives around this mountain, Kilimanjaro signifies a tremendous life force, offering rich volcanic soils for agriculture and an inexhaustible supply of clean spring waters.

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro<\/h2>

One of the most astonishing characteristics of the mountain today is its peak’s accessibility to climbers who have never used mountain climbing equipment or have no prior experience ascending such heights. It is the tallest peak that ordinary visitors may climb, despite the fact that it is still a significant feat of human endurance!<\/p>

The amount of breathing oxygen at the summit is less than half that found at sea level, and climbers must traverse at least eighty kilometers on their own two feet over the five days it takes to reach the summit and return.<\/p>

Over the last century, the number of climbers has increased to over a thousand each year, a significant increase since Hans Meyer became the first European to summit Kilimanjaro in 1889. Because of the growing number of climbers each year, the Kilimanjaro National Park now requires all climbs to be pre-booked, and tickets are no longer granted at the park entrance at the last minute.<\/p>

Overall Fitness Required<\/h2>

Although it is feasible to hike to the summit of Kibo without using professional climbing equipment, it is a difficult and serious undertaking that demands a high degree of physical fitness, stamina, and a realistic understanding of the potentially harmful consequences of high elevations.<\/p>

Before trying to scale the mountain, several tour companies recommend that passengers contact with a doctor and undergo a physical examination to assess general fitness.<\/p>
