Kilimanjaro Challenge
Taking on Africa’s highest mountain is often called the hardest thing an ordinary person can do. When it comes to charity challenges, this is classic. The feeling of pushing on to conquer the 5,895m summit is hard to beat – and doing it for a good cause is even better. Join us and take on this challenge with your friends, family or solo, having found a great group of people along the way. Group climbs bring like minded people together to share the experience.
Support Interntional Animal Rescue and reach the roof of Africa! The Lemosho route is one of the most scenic ways to reach the top, offering incredible views from the rainforests of the early days, to the cold summit. You’ll be supported every step of the way by the Action Challenge team – with a UK qualified mountain leader & medic who fly out with the team, plus a highly experienced local crew. The package includes flights, hotels, all camping equipment, meals, permits and more.
If you register for this challenge, you can also get £100 off when you use discount code ‘IAR100’ at checkout!
