Mount Meru

Erklimme Tansania's zweithöchsten Gipfel mit uns

Der Mount Meru ist ein oft übersehener, aber spektakulärer Vulkan auf 4.566 m (14.980 Fuß), der sich im Zentrum des Arusha-Nationalparks befindet. Die Massen, die den Kilimandscharo plagen können, gibt es hier nicht, was eine einsame, friedliche Wanderung ermöglicht. Die Unterbringung erfolgt in Holzhütten.

An den unteren Hängen des Berges und innerhalb des Parks besteht eine gute Chance, Tiere zu beobachten. Ein bewaffneter Ranger wird Ihre Gruppe auf der ersten Etappe begleiten, um sich vor Bedrohungen durch Wildtiere zu schützen. Der Weg folgt dem Nordrand des Kraters entlang einer dramatischen Kammlinie. Auf dem Gipfel angekommen, ist die Aussicht auf den Kilimandscharo und hinunter in den Meru-Krater unvergesslich.

Tanzania Horizon Safaris bietet Mount Meru als 3-Tages-Tour & 4-Tages-Tour an. Im ersten Abschnitt werden unsere Gruppen aus Schutz vor Wildtieren von einem bewaffneten Ranger begleitet.
