- Rob Capleton, Kilimanjaro Challenge 2007

Climb the highest free standing mountain in the world. At 5,896m, Kilimanjaro is one of the largest volcanoes ever to break through the earth’s crust. Begin the challenge in a rainforest and the days that follow will see your climb rise until you are looking down on a sea of clouds.

With night time views of star-studded African skies, this ten day challenge will be truly memorable.
