There is a national park in the same area of Kilimanjaro where breathtaking flora can be discovered. Flowers, plants, and trees are in the foreground. As for the fauna, many animals are observed. Indeed, the ecosystem is so impressive that the park is home to more than 150 species of mammals and birds. Moreover, some of Africa's most famous mammals, including elephants, leopards and buffaloes, have found refuge there. In addition, animal watching is a highly prized activity. For this, park rangers are allies in spotting and not disturbing the animals and staying safe.
For the more curious, there will be the opportunity to go to the park's surroundings to make excursions that will allow them to admire the Marangu waterfalls, among other things.
The Kilimanjaro region is dotted with lakes that are a must-see for any traveler. Lake Jipe, a renowned watering hole for many animals, is a sight to behold. Then there's the unique Lake Chala, with its fairy-like appearance and lush surroundings, making it a truly magical destination.
Trekking is an everyday activity on Kilimanjaro. Several hiking trails range from the simplest to the most challenging. Some trails are named Machame Route, Rongai Route, Shira Route, Marangua Route or Umbwe Route. However, the bravest must persevere, as the trek lasts six to eight days. In addition, they must expect substantial temperature variations through hot and humid conditions in the forests to find themselves at frigid temperatures at high altitudes. ◄
