Arusha, Tanzania

At 4562 m, Mount Meru is Tanzania's second-highest mountain and the fourth-highest mountain in Africa. The mountain became well known mainly because it is only 70 km from Mount Kilimanjaro. Mount Meru has become a popular "warm-up" trek for Kilimanjaro climbers and can be viewed from Mount Kilimanjaro.
