There are seven routes to Kilimanjaro: SIX routes up Kilimanjaro and TWO down. (Yeah, it sounds like eight lanes. But one of the uphill trails can also be used for downhill, so there's really only seven lanes.)

Mount Kilimanjaro is not only the highest point in Africa, it is the highest independent mountain in the world! Any climber attempting to climb Kilimanjaro must prepare mentally and physically with a regimen of exercises and understanding of altitude.
