Christmas on Kilimanjaro: Summiting Africa's Roof in December

By: Debrah, Praise

What does it feel like to celebrate Christmas at the highest free-standing mountain in the world? Christmas on Kilimanjaro: Summiting Africa's Roof in December takes readers on a spellbinding journey from the lush forests at the mountain's base to the icy glaciers of Uhuru Peak. Through a vivid first-person narrative, I share my personal experience of climbing Kilimanjaro during the holiday season - facing the challenges of altitude, exhaustion, and unpredictable weather, while discovering moments of awe, wonder, and deep connection along the way.
This book is more than a climbing memoir. It is a celebration of human resilience, mindfulness, and the spirit of Christmas in the most extraordinary setting imaginable. Experience the thrill of the Barranco Wall, the surreal beauty of the Shira Plateau, and the unforgettable sunrise on the summit, all while reflecting on the quiet lessons of gratitude, humility, and joy. Practical appendices provide detailed route information, training tips, gear checklists, health and safety advice, and reflective prompts to help climbers and adventurers plan their own journey.
Whether you are a seasoned trekker, an armchair adventurer, or someone searching for inspiration during the holiday season, this book invites you to step into a transformative expedition. Witness the magic of a Christmas spent amidst snow and clouds, guided by the wisdom of the mountain and the warmth of human connection. Christmas on Kilimanjaro is a story of courage, reflection, and the extraordinary moments that await those willing to climb higher - in body, mind, and spirit.
