incredible feeling once you reach the top of Africa! At 5895 meters, the oxygen level is so low, that every step you take is exhausting.

By far the toughest trip i have ever done. We got hit by hail, snow, rain and minus 25 degrees weather, but we all made it to the top! incredible feeling once you reach the top of Africa! The guides and the porter team was incredibly helpful and really helped us all reach the top. You definitely need to be prepared for altitude sickness, sleeping in minus degrees, and have a very strong mental toughness to pull through to the end. At 5895 meters, the oxygen level is so low, that every step you take is exhausting, which makes the final hike up very tough! But in the end its just an incredible feeling!Show more
