  1. Kilimanjaro Climate Zones -The Changing Landscapes Of Mount Kilimanjaro Kilimanjaro Climate Zones is the most amazing facts you should consider before hiking for the summit at Uhuru Peak or the “freedom peak”. Located in the northern part of Tanzania, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest freestanding mountain in the world with an altitude of 5895 meters. New and experienced hikers attempt for the summit, to get achievement, experience the thrilling adventure or to spot the large diversity of fauna. According to the climate, flora, and landscapes, there are five ecological or climate zones you are going to face while Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. This gives you a very rough indication on the five different climate zones. “Mount Kilimanjaro ecology is made up of five distinct Climate Zones which are Cultivation, Forest, Heather-Moorland, Alpine Desert and Summit climate zones. Have a look at the specifications of each zone” Climate Zones Of Mount Kilimanjaro Cultivation Zone (800m – 1800m)

  2. Made up of farmland and small villages, the Cultivation zone between 800m to 1800m is the base of Mt. Kilimanjaro. With a high fertility plain, this zone is best for agriculture, farming, and plantations. This zone is the home of Africa’s best coffee farms, bananas, and local Chagga communities. In this zone, the rivers are formed from the merging streams of water from the glaciers and the temperature can rise up to 35 degrees Celsius. Rain forest zone (1800m – 2800m)

  3. The tropical rain forest zone starts from 1800m to 2800m and the temperature varies between 20 to 25 degrees Celsius. The rainforest receives the highest rainfall among all of the Kilimanjaro Climate Zones. The trail is edged by deep gorges of green emerald blankets. The twisted forest floor makes the ancient trees to be covered by a coat of moss. The forest in the south is much thicker than the north of Mt. Kilimanjaro which is on the Kenyan side of the mountain. The green dense vegetation combining with the cloud on the upper level of the forest makes it best for natural sights.
