| Kilimanjaro from outside Moshi town |
Situated on the southeastern slopes of Kilimanjaro, the small town of Moshi is full of hiker hotels that cater to tourism in Kilimanjaro National Park and Arusha National Park. Trekking the slopes of Kili and Meru are the top attractions in the area.
About an hour west of the larger town of Arusha, Moshi makes a more accessible and less crowded base for Kili treks.
If you are trekking only Mt. Meru, Arusha makes a better base for your adventure. Arusha is about 1 hr west of Moshi and about 30 mins from the JRO airport. |
