What is Mt. Meru
A volcano standing at a height of 4,566 metres (14,980 ft). Much easier and quicker to climb than nearby Kilimanjaro with similar views (to Kilimanjaro, for example). It's a one night two day hike, setting you back less than 1K€ / person.
Highly rated nearby
About Mt. Meru
paavo from Indonesia wrote about Mt. Meru one year, 5 months ago
A good alternative to climbing nearby Kilimanjaro. With lower height and similar views its a good option if you only a few days to spare or eg. medical condition prevents you from climbing the Kili.
The trips from Arusha cost around 600€/person and take 2-4 days.
About places near Mt. Meru

Hotel Illboru lodge was located outside the city centre (few km's up-hill towards mt.
Meru). The rooms (in small cottages behind the main building) were very clean and the service very polite and nice. They even had a good sized pool in the back.
The best part, though, is that it is owned and managed by a local family which makes it a good choice if you want to make a contribution to the local community.

Arusha houses UN war tribunal on Rwanda ´94 genocide. You can't get in, though, but is of course interesting to see if you are in the city.

An exciting town in which there is a strange atmosphere where the locals and tourists meet You feel quite safe but still want to look over your shoulder You feel quite safe but still want to look over your shoulder. A lot of touts, which try to sell you safaris etc.
