Mountain Trekking in Tanzania

When to go trekking in Tanzania

You'll always be able to find some hiking opportunities in Tanzania, but not all trails are possible in the rainy seasons from November to mid-December, and the end of March to May.

During the rainy season, some of the trails are impassable and climbing Kilimanjaro and Meru becomes dangerous.

The dry season from June to October is generally cooler and more suited to trekking, although night temperatures can get quite cold, especially in the mountains, so make sure to pack warm clothes no matter when you're visiting.
