UNESCO - Kilimanjaro National Park, Tanzania



Like last time with Tanzania, I have arranged a 'blind' swap and received something amazing :) At 5895 m, Kilimanjaro is the highest point in Africa. This volcanic massif stands in splendid isolation above the surrounding plains, with its snowy peak looming over the savannah. The mountain is encircled by mountain forest. Numerous mammals, many of them endangered species, live in the park. An estimated 220 endangered African elephants are distributed between the Namwai and Tarakia rivers.
The elephants in the photo are possibly not those mentioned because they roam the valley, it is nevertheless a great depiction of what we imagine Africa to be.
