Thank you @AbdullahAM , this mountain has a height of 5895M from the sea level, it is dormant volcanic mountain(there is no eruption record for more than two decade), at the top of the mountain(Uhuru peak or Gilman’s point) there is a crater hole resulted from volcanic eruption in thousand of years ago, climbing this mountain is a life achievement for most of the people, you will be offered certificate for reaching uhuru peak which is the highest point in Africa from the sea level, trekking in this beautiful and wonderful mountain may take five to eight days depending on the route that you have chosen, there is also a very beautiful national park known as Kilimanjaro national park surrounding this mountain, thus you will see a lot of wild animal while enjoying mountain climbing, the common animals include elephant,giraffe,buffalo,antelopes,varieties of birds and reptiles, there are also a lot of water falls around the national parks, transportation to Mt Kilimanjaro is well established as there is a lot of tourism companies which offer the services, the Mountain is also located very close to Kilimanjaro international airport.

Karibu Tanzania(welcome to Tanzania, the land of Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar)
