4 Days Mount Meru Climbing Tour- Tanzania from Arusha

Mount Meru is Tanzania’s second highest mountain standing tall at 4,566m. It offers some of the most spectacular scenery and wildlife diversity of any mountain in Tanzania.
Day 1Arusha (1400m) – Miriakamba Hut (2500m)
After an early morning breakfast in Arusha, you will be picked up from your hotel and brought to the Momella Gate in Arusha National Park. At this time, the porters will organize and pack the belongings for the hike while you and your guide register with the Tanzania National Park (Tanapa). You will then begin your ascent in Arusha National Park. The first day of hiking is similar to a walking safari; hikers can expect to see giraffes, zebras, antelope, buffalo, and potentially elephants near the trail. Due to the high possibility of spotting wildlife, an armed ranger (hired through the National Park) is required to hike with our team for this part of the trek. As you continue hiking, you will pass the Ngarenanyuki River and a beautiful waterfall at the base of Mt. Meru. Upon arriving to Miriakamba Hut (2500m), your chef will prepare a hot dinner and washing water for you. Enjoy the beautiful sunset, your reward for a day of hard trekking!

Day 2 Miriakamba Hut (2500m) – Saddle Hut (3500m)
After breakfast, you will start ascending up the steep trail along the ridge of the saddle. You may see various wild animals along the way! The trail has spectacular views of the Mt. Meru Crater and the Ash Tray. When you arrive at camp, you'll have the option of hiking Little Mt. Meru (3820m) with your guide to further acclimate. You will be served an early dinner, so you can receive ample rest before your midnight summit attempt. We recommend getting to sleep no later than 19h00. Sweet dreams!

Day 3 Saddle Hut (3500m) – Summit Attempt (4566m) – Miriakamba Hut (2500m)
Your guide will rouse you at 00:30 for hot tea and biscuits. You will then begin your summit attempt at 01.30. The trail starts off on a steep grade from Rhino Point (3800m) to Cobra Point (4350m). In the last hour of the hike, you will scramble onto a rocky ridge between the crater and inner cliffs of Meru. You will reach the summit of Meru (4565m) at sunrise, with spectacular panoramas of Mt. Meru Ash Tray and Mt. Kilimanjaro. Take your time enjoying this once-in-a-lifetime view, then descend to Saddle Hut for a short break. You will then continue descending to Miriakamba Hut (2500m) for dinner and a night of well-deserved

Day 4 Miriakamba Hut (2500m) – Arusha (1400m)
After a long, lazy lie-in (and a hearty breakfast!), we will begin our final descent to Momella gate. Our route takes us through lush forests and meadows, where we are likely to spot wild birds and grazers. At the base of Mt. Meru, you will be greeted by our driver, who will take you safely back to Arusha.
