| Description: | The snow-topped Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is Africa’s highest peak, we call rooftop of Africa and the world’s tallest free-standing mountain.
Mt. Kilimanjaro is the free-standing and #1 highest mountain in Africa at 5,895 meters above the sea level. But it isn’t a mountain in an old sense. It is a huge stratovolcano that started forming about a million years past and is self-possessed of several coatings of hardened volcanic ash, lava, pumice as well as tephra — fragmental substantial that is the outcome from a volcanic eruption. |
