Overview
Trekking Overview:
Mount Meru is the second highest mountain in Tanzania, at 4566 metre (14,979 feet). It is
overshadowed by Kilimanjaro, its famous neighbour, and frequently overlooked by visitors. But Meru
is a spectacular mountain; a trek involves beautiful hiking through the grassland and forest on the
mountain’s lower slopers, followed by a dramatic and exhilarating ridge-walk to the summit.
