About Mount Meru<\/h2>

Mount Meru is one of Africa\u2019s most beautiful volcanoes, and it is the second highest mountain in Tanzania at 4,5685m, the fifth highest in Africa.<\/p>

The mountain is located within Arusha National Park<\/a>, Tanzania\u2019s gem. This prime location gives walkers the opportunity to spot some of the birds and wildlife that inhabit the area. Experiencing nature on foot offers unusual recreational opportunities and environmental education \u2013 it eliminates the monopoly of the traditional way of viewing nature while confined in a vehicle, and allows visitors to have a direct touch with nature. Herds of buffaloes, elephants, giraffes, troops of primates, leopards, et cetera, can be found on the way. A company of armed park ranger is recommended. The ascent is quite steep; the route to the summit passes over streams, through parkland, montane forest, a giant heather zone and moorland.<\/p>

The summit is reached by a narrow, barren ridge, which provides stunning views of the Ash Cone lying several thousand feet below in the crater. Weather permitting, Kilimanjaro can be seen in the West. There are two huts available to climbers on the mountain and firewood is supplied. The best time to climb Meru is between October and February, also June to September. Regal African Safaris<\/a> offers few hours walk in Arusha National Park to several days on the mountain to give our clients a closer interaction with nature; the experience is surely worthwhile and breathtaking!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
