Discovering Mount Meru: A Comprehensive Guide

1. Where is Mount Meru Located?

Mount Meru is situated in northeastern Tanzania, offering one of Africa’s finest trekking experiences with breathtaking views from its crater.

2. Geological Insights and Historical Expeditions

Similar to Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru is an active volcano, with its last minor eruption occurring over a century ago in 1910. The volcano’s unique horseshoe shape resulted from a major eruption millions of years ago, and its summit collapsed around 7,800 years ago. German explorers summited it in the early 20th century, with debates over whether Carl Uhlig in 1901 or Fritz Jaeger in 1904 led the first successful expedition.

Towering over Arusha National Park, Mount Meru provides a less crowded trekking experience with a chance to witness diverse wildlife, including antelopes, buffalos, and other majestic creatures. Guides, armed for protection, accompany trekkers, making the journey both safe and immersive.

5. Planning Your Trek: Practical Considerations
