Mount Meru is Tanzania’s second highest mountain standing at 14,977 Feet (4,566 M). It is located in Arusha National Park and offers some of the most spectacular scenery and wildlife diversity of any mountain in Tanzania. Mount Meru is a challenging trek due to its steepness but is a great way to acclimatize before attempting Mt. Kilimanjaro or for those who might not want to climb Kilimanjaro
Climbers are accompanied by a ranger due to the abundance of wildlife on the lower slopes. Mt. Meru is said to be the resting place of Noah’s Ark when it came to rest after the biblical flood receded. It is a great trekking option for those who want to hike but might not ready for Kilimanjaro or just want a shorter hike.
