The fifth highest mountain in Africa. Mount Meru offers a challenging and interesting climb.Meru is obscure mountain,overshadowed by its famous neighbour Mt.Kilimanjaro.Yet its volcanic cone is spectacular.Trekking to the summit takes you through the grasslands and lush forest,followed by a dramatic walk along the knife edge of the crater rim.You will meet few people,this makes it more attractive.
