TREK KILIMANJARO

11th – 20th October 2012 

Travel to Tanzania and trek up Africa’s highest mountain, a mere 5,895 metres above sea level! Experience the richness of the local flora and fauna, and reach the summit to take in some of the most stunning views on the planet.

You'll trek through dense forest, over rocky terrain and up to ice glaciers to discover the three volcanic centres of Kilimanjaro, as well as having the chance to experience the local culture. And at the same time you'll be helping to raise much needed funds for The Mission to Seafarers.
