Image
Ol’doinyo Lengai rises about 2,100 meters above the East African Rift Valley floor to a height approximately 2,880 m. The name Ol’doinyo Lenkai which means “Mountain of God” originates from the Maa language (the Maasai’s language) from Ngorongoro area. The Maasai people conduct prayers to God “Enkai” or “Engai” whom the Maasai believe is the Creator of all things on this active volcanic mountain. Ol’doinyo Lenkai is the only active volcanic mountain in the East African Rift Valley Region which attracts many geologists from all over the world who come for research. Scientifically, carbonated lava is dark brown upon extrusion, but reacts very rapidly and turns into moisture to hydrate, then to secondary alteration minerals that impart awhite colour to the rock. The Maasai believe that the “while rock” symbolizes thewhite beards of “Enkai”. Many tourists visit and climb this mountain which is located in Northern Tanzania every year. One should not underestimate this 9,442 feet long mou...

Image
Everything we focused on helping our climbers summit safely. We control every aspect of your climb to give you the very best chance of reaching Uhuru Peak. You can climb Kilimanjaro any month of the year, however, you should consider three main factors in choosing your climb date. First is the weather, second is how busy the trek will be and third is the timing of the full moon And The weather on any high altitude mountain can be changeable and unpredictable and Kilimanjaro is no different. Just because it is the dry season is no guarantee that you will not see rain!! Generally though this is a good rule: January to March is warmer with only the occasional brief shower. It is often quieter than the other peak season of June to October, which coincides with the main school holidays in Europe.
