Explore Kilimanjaro’s Shira Plateau — dramatic views of Kibo, lava sculptures, and the photogenic Shira Needles.
The Shira Plateau day hike offers a taste of Africa’s tallest peak on a UNESCO World Heritage Site as a day trip from Moshi.
Hike the ancient rim for a strenuous option, or enjoy the undulating plateau floor to the Shira Needles at the southern end. To the west, Kibo’s glaciers rise above deep valleys and eroded lava flows — streams cross the plateau before plunging to the plains below.
