Trek Kilimanjaro for blood cancer patients!

The highest freestanding mountain in the world, Kilimanjaro is also the highest mountain on the African continent at 5896m. Its snow-capped summit rises high above the dusty plains and huge permanent glaciers flow down from the summit; these views are the reward for pushing your limits both physically and mentally.

This trek takes the less-trodden Machame route, allowing you to camp and fully appreciate the splendour of your surroundings and the clear night skies. You pass through thick forest, moorland to the highest point, Uhuru Peak.

This is a challenging trek at altitude, climbing one of the most impressive and well-known mountains in the world.

The itinerary for this challenge can be found here.
