Africa's fifth-highest peak and Tanzania's best-kept trekking secret. At 4,566 metres, Mount Meru rises from Arusha National Park through rainforest, moorland, and a dramatic ash cone to the Socialist Peak summit. Giraffe and buffalo share the lower slopes. The view of Kilimanjaro from the top — 70 km away across the Maasai steppe — is one of Africa's finest sights.
