But more than just looking incredible and inspiring awe, fear, excitement, and all sorts of other emotions, climbing the highest free-standing peak in the world is even more tempting. If it’s been something on your bucket list for a while, or even something you’ve never thought about before, take this as your sign to do it before 2021 ends.

Here are the best reasons to hike and climb up this mountain soon:

MOUNT KILIMANJARO IS A NATURAL WONDER OF THE WORLD

Over 19,000 ft. high, this incredible mountain defies everything we’d assume about it. Not only is it an active volcano, but it’s also got a snow-topped peak all year long, is home to multiple ecological zones such as forests, ice caps, and bushland, and is situated pretty close to the equator. There’s nothing about it that isn’t magical.

IT’S SURPRISINGLY EASY TO CLIMB—HONESTLY

This isn’t just a random generic statement to encourage tourists. It’s true that despite being so high and mighty, pretty much anyone can climb Kilimanjaro. That’s why over 40,000 people a year do it!

No matter your previous mountaineering experience, age, health, and fitness levels, this mountain is fairly accessible. That’s not to say it’s not challenging or physically and mentally taxing, but rather, you shouldn’t let previous experience—or lack thereof—hold you back.

YOU CAN WITNESS A LOT OF WILDLIFE ON THE MOUNTAIN

Speaking of ecological zones, Kilimanjaro is home to several unique creatures such as the Blue Monkey, Aardvark, and even occasional predators such as lions and one legendary frozen leopard. You never know what you’ll see!

THE BASE CAMP IS CLEAN, SAFE, AND WELL-MAINTAINED

Mount Kilimanjaro’s base camp is well-maintained, clean, and safe for tourists, locals, mountaineers, and adventure-seekers. It’s well-connected to multiple travel routes, including airports; there are cities and many well-developed infrastructures within close proximity. You’ll never be cut off or have to deal with dirty, littered camps and accommodations.

Take on Mount Kilimanjaro with some of the most experienced, well-versed guides whose expertise and familiarity with the area will make your trip even better. You can travel to the mountain at several points during the year, and if you can’t make it in 2021, that’s okay. We’re bringing you plenty of opportunities next year too.
