Mountain Trekking

East Africa offers a variety of treks in several of the parks throughout Tanzania and Kenya. Just like you, we love, enjoy and respect nature. We would love to share that passion with you whether it be bird watching, animal viewing, or enjoying a pleasant day hike in East Africa. For the intrepid spirit, there are several options for viewing wildlife by foot in one of the many parks. With plenty of trails, mountains, and volcanoes dotting the region, East Africa is one of the best places on earth to enjoy some incredible hikes. Read on for the region’s best treks, ranging from the bright forests of Tanzania to the staggering peaks of the Virunga mountain range. Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in both Tanzania and Africa, is just as impressive as you would imagine. Picture forest trails that lead into rocky and moon-like landscapes before giving way to snowy glacial views. There are several trails for hikers attempting this climb, and the Machame, Lemosho, and Shira routes are the most popular and ranging from six to eight days. As the second highest mountain in Africa, and the highest mountain in Kenya, climbing Mt. Kenya is not an activity to undertake lightly. There are a couple of different routes up the mountain, and all reward hikers with the sparkling glacial summit.
