3 Days MT Meru Hiking Private Tour

Start your adventure with a scenic drive from Arusha to the Momela Gate, where you’ll complete registration and meet your team for the trek ahead. From here, your journey begins with an armed ranger escort, ensuring safety as you hike through the beautiful Montane Forest. Along the way, keep your eyes open for the incredible wildlife that inhabits the area, including elephants, giraffes, zebras, and various species of monkeys. The trek to Meriakamba Hut follows a moderately challenging trail, providing you with plenty of time to adjust to the altitude while enjoying the natural surroundings.

After an early breakfast, you’ll embark on your trek toward Saddle Hut, navigating a steep but incredibly rewarding ascent. As you climb higher, you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of the Meru Crater and the impressive Ash Cone, making the effort worthwhile. Upon reaching Saddle Hut, a hot lunch will be ready, allowing you to refuel and relax after the challenging hike. Once you’ve rested, you have the option to take a short hike to the summit of Little Meru, where you’ll be greeted with stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, a perfect way to end the day.

Summit day begins in the early hours, with a challenging ascent from Saddle Hut to Rhino Point, followed by a steep climb to Socialist Peak, the highest point of Mount Meru. Reaching the summit just as the sun rises, you’ll be greeted with breathtaking panoramic views, including the iconic sight of Kilimanjaro rising above the clouds in the distance. After taking in the incredible scenery and enjoying a short rest at the summit, you’ll begin your descent back to Saddle Hut for a well-deserved brunch. Afterward, continue your descent through the scenic landscape to Momela Gate, where a transfer awaits to take you back to your hotel
