If you are about to embark on one of Tanzania's unexpected adventures, timing your trek is as critical as all the preparations for the climb. Mount Meru is known as Tanzania's "hidden jewel" and provides an extraordinary combination of wildlife, forest trails, and supreme summit views of Kilimanjaro. Kilitrips will always be your trusted partner ensuring you choose the best season for your trek to enjoy the best possible experience. 

The best time to explore Mount Meru climbing routes is during the dry season:

June to October

During this period the skies are clear and temperatures are cool; rainfall is also very low making it perfect for photography and wildlife sightings in Arusha National Park.

December to February

The temperatures increase slightly, still allowing good visibility; climbers are rewarded with jaw-dropping views of the sunrise over Kilimanjaro.

Why Avoid the Rainy Seasons?

From March to May and November, the heavy rains make the trail slippery and visibility low. Although it is equally possible to trek then, the overall experience can be rendered less enjoyable compared to that during the dry months.
