Mount Meru Day Hike — Miriakamba Hut
The Mount Meru Day Hike is the perfect adventure for travelers short on time but eager to experience Tanzania’s second-highest mountain. Starting from Momella Gate (1,500 m) in Arusha National Park, the trail winds through open savannah and acacia forest, offering the chance to spot giraffes, buffalo, warthogs, and colobus monkeys along the way.
After passing the Maio Waterfalls and the famous arched fig tree, you’ll continue climbing to the Miriakamba Hut area (2,500 m) — the highlight and turnaround point of the hike. From here, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro (weather permitting), the Momella Lakes, and the surrounding forest.
This hike is accompanied by a certified mountain guide and an armed park ranger, ensuring safety while enriching your journey with knowledge about the area’s unique ecology and wildlife. With a picnic lunch en route and round-trip transfers from Arusha included, this rewarding full-day excursion combines adventure, nature, and culture in one unforgettable experience.
