About This Tour
Cathedral point 3872m is on Mt. Kilimanjaro's shira Plateau. Shira Plateau is one of the most fascinating and scenic areas on Kilimanjaro and it is the oldest peak of Mount Kilimanjaro raised to 3872m asl . It is well worth a visit to explore the ridges and moorland. The Shira Plateau area of Kilimanjaro offers a fantastic opportunity to get high on a big mountain and to hike around this impressive World Heritage Site as a day trip. Shira is a large, rocky plateau whose landscape was shaped by the lava that came from Mount Kilimanjaro when it was an active volcano. The plateau allows you to get a taste of this spectacular mountain and its many ecosystems and also provides a stunning view of the perpetually snow-capped summit of the world's tallest free-standing mountain.
