| Book Kilimanjaro flights on CheapOair and kick off an exciting expedition to Mount Kilimanjaro! About 20,000 hikers trek to Mount Kilimanjaro every year. Find cheap Kilimanjaro flights online and take off to this amazing destination! Kilimanjaro took shape about a million years ago due to a series of volcanic movements along the Great Rift Way. Today, the volcano lies dormant, and the last notable eruption occurred about 200 years ago. This perfectly shaped volcano rises magnificently from the tropical plains of Tanzania, which is the home for herds of elephants, zebras and other African animals.
As you ascend the mountain, the grassy lower slopes turn into verdant rainforests inhabited by leopards, elephants, antelopes and buffaloes. You trek past the rainforests and arrive at the heath and moorland dotted with the giant groundsels, lobelias and heathers. All you need to take on Mount Kilimanjaro is a reasonable level of fitness and plenty of determination! If you're not ready to take on the mountain, you can still try the scenic hiking trails of Marangu and Umbwe. Marangu is the gentlest climb and it passes through shambas growing coffee, and the rain forests. Umbwe is short and steep, and is known for its stunning scenery. In Kilimanjaro, when you're not hiking, be sure to check out the local restaurants for some tasty and authentic Swahili cuisine.
