Africa's highest peak and one of the Seven Summits — the climb to 5,895m Uhuru Peak is achievable without technical mountaineering skills on the standard walking routes. The Lemosho route is the most scenic and has the best acclimatisation profile. Arusha is the primary logistics hub for Kilimanjaro expeditions.
