Kilimanjaro Shira Plateau Day Hike

The trekking starts by driving from west of the mountain through Londorossi gate to Morum Picnini site. From the gate is rainforest with a number of wildlife which includes black and white colabus monkey, blue monkey, Baboons, Eland, Dikdik etc. In some point while driving you will get the view of Kibo, Mawenzi and Shira peak but from Morum Picnic site the view of all peaks is spectacular and amazing. I love this day hike experience because it takes you up to elevation of 3601M (amsl), although elevation gain from the end of drive is 203 m in distance of 4. 2km. The Kibo peak is so close and can be viewed from its base. The vegetation zone is moorland and all plants are short giving opportunity of distant view. The hiking is friendly to the people of all age, I once hiked with client aged 75 years and everything was fine.
