Mountains and trekking
Five mountains.
Five ways to rise.
From Kilimanjaro’s glacial summit to the green village trails of the Usambaras, choose a mountain for the experience it offers—not only the altitude on its map.

Every ascent has its own character.
Compare summit style, terrain, time and atmosphere. Each guide opens into a different planning story built around that mountain.

Africa’s highest mountain offers a nontechnical high altitude trek through rainforest, heath, alpine desert and glacial summit terrain.
