Stock No. HGF049One in a series of Rucksack Readers (UK), rugged, rucksack-friendly guidebooks for walkers and climbers. The classic format for long-distance walkers has 64 pages, a dropdown route map and 60-75 color photos. This guide contains everything you need to plan and enjoy trekking up Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest point on earth to which you can walk. This is a mountain of contrasts and extremes. You start from tropical rain forest and finish in arctic conditions, passing through a landscape formed by ice and fire. Yet any well-prepared walker with enough determination may be able to reach "the roof of Africa." The greatest challenge is the huge altitude gain. The author's advice on preventing altitude sickness is based on medical research, and on her own experience of three ascents by different routes
