Safari summary

Shira Route Kilimanjaro Cathedral Point 3962m is located on the Shira Plateau of Kilimanjaro. The Shira Plateau is one of the most fascinating and scenic areas of Kilimanjaro and at 3962m it is the oldest peak of Kilimanjaro. It is a very adventurous landscape to visit and explore the ridges and moors. Shira is a large rocky plateau whose landscape was shaped by the lava of Mount Kilimanjaro, which erupted when it was still an active volcano.
