Nine of the world's most famous dormant volcanoes

Mount Kilimanjaro (Moshi, Tanzania)   

Known as the "Roof of Africa," Mount Kilimanjaro is located in the Tanzanian town of Moshi at an elevation of about 19,341 feet (about 5,895.14 meters) and consists mainly of three dormant volcanoes, Kibo, Mawinsi and Hira. For backpackers, the site has a fatal attraction. One reason is that Kilimanjaro is one of the few peaks that can be climbed without any climbing equipment. If you don't want to suffer from altitude sickness, you can visit Kilimanjaro National Park at the base of the mountain to see the wildlife.
