Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the highest mountains in the world that stands free and is the highest mountain in Africa. The height reaches 5,895 meters which means it has a difference of about 3000 meters more than Mount Everest which is the highest mountain in the World.

For the conditions of snow on Mount Kilimanjaro, it has begun to decrease. Due to the very severe global warming in the world today. The glaciers that covered this peak had begun to thin out from 11,700 years ago

Compared to the past century, of course this mountain has lost 80% of the volume of ice and according to research from Ohio State University led by Lonnie Thompson said that the volume of ice on the top of this mountain will run out from 2015 to 2020.

Therefore, it is very important for us as inhabitants of this earth to always maintain cleanliness. And reduce the use of all types of energy which would have a negative impact on the environment.

This mountain is one of the concrete examples for us. Of course, it will be detrimental to us as citizens of the earth who will lose a lot of natural beauty over time. Because it has become our joint obligation to always maintain the integrity of the universe.


Regarding the uniqueness of this mountain itself, that is with the telephone signal up to its peak. Wow! Because Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the highest points in the world served by GSM-based mobile phone networks.

So you don't need to worry about the signal when it is at the top of this mountain. And of course it will be a big advantage if you can still use your cellphone at the peak.

Because you will not know what events can happen to you later, but with the communication that will find a solution. Despite having a high level of difficulty, climbing this mountain turned out to have advantages for climbers too.

This mountain also provides benefits to local residents. Because of the size of the mountain it is possible to create its own climate. A wet wind blows from the Indian Ocean through a semi-arid lowland, bumps into Kilimanjaro and turns up so that it experiences condensation and produces rainfall,

From there it also caused the land around Mount Kilimanjaro to be fertile. And indirectly the citizens also get fantastic benefits. Then one of the famous natural products is palawija.


If you have heard about pulses, the produce comes from the very fertile Mount Kilimanjaro.

Regarding the history of the name of Mount Kilimanjaro is very long and full of debate, but certainly in 1889 a first climber named Hans Mayer managed to reach its highest peak and then named the peak as Kaiser-Wilhelm-Spitze which continued to be known until 1964 when Tanzania began formed. Then it changed after the Summit took place to be Uhuru which means Freedom Peak.

Some official climbing routes that can be chosen by climbers include Machame, Marangu, Rongai, Lemosho, Umbwe, and Shira while for the Mweka route can only be traversed for the climbers' down route. Reporting from the Wikipedia page there is actually one climbing route that can be chosen, namely Western Breach, but since the landslide that resulted in the deaths of 4 climbers in the Arrow Glacier camp in 2006, the Tanzanian Government closed the entrance through the climbing route.


If you are curious about how to climb through the Machame route, you can see this short story.
The adventure of three friends, Ignacio Garcia Sanabria, Javier Sese, and Ignacio Manero in climbing the highest mountain peak of Kilimanjaro uploaded with an Ignacioml89 account on this Youtube site will give a picture of how things are there.

Starting with their meeting to go to Tanzania and then meet two local guides named Joseph and August to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Their journey began after gathering and performing traditional events with local climbers and other foreign climbers on the mountainside.

After waiting until the sun rises, they begin the journey with normal paths full of rocks to steep paths that require them to climb. Approaching the peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, the climbers will also feel almost all types of climate on the earth.


Until finally the climbers managed to reach the top of the mountain which is always shrouded in eternal snow and at this peak the climbers will find a large board made by the Tanzanian government in English "Congratulations, You are now at Uhuru Peak, Tanzania, 5895 m. AMSL. Africa Highest Point. WorldHighest Free-Standing Mountain. One of World Largest Volcano. Welcome. "
