CLIMBING MT KILIMANJARO, TANZANIA

Climb onto the highest mountain peak in Africa

Media Release - 17 March 2008

FOR the ultimate natural high, this eight-day climb taking adventurers to Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa’s loftiest peak, is up there with the best.

And the hiking experience doesn’t cost a mountain (pun intended) with student holiday provider STA Travel offering the Kilimanjaro Climb from just AUD $1,555*  plus local payment of USD $200 per person including the services of local guides and porters, simple hotel and camping accommodation and most meals.

Following the Rongai Route, the mountain trek is considered easier and more scenic than the Marangu Route but still presents a tough and ultimately highly rewarding challenge for previous climbers.

Marvel at the Kilimanjaro Colobus monkey, pass the jagged peaks of Mawenzi, venture beyond the limits of vegetation, cross lunar deserts and make a midnight departure by torchlight for the final thrilling assault on the summit, Uhuru Peak.

All this and much, much more is waiting to be experienced on the Mt Kilimanjaro climb adventure from STA Travel which offers daily departures until the end of the year.
