      At 19,336 feet high, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa and the tallest freestanding mountain in the world. The mountain is situated near the town of Moshi in northern Tanzania. Kilimanjaro is also one of the largest volcanoes on Earth. It features three volcanic cones: Mawenzi, Shira, and Kibo, the mountain’s highest peak. Although Mawenzi and Shira are extinct, Kibo lies dormant and may erupt again. Kilimanjaro's last volcanic activity occurred about two hundred years ago, although its last volcanic eruption was hundreds of thousands of years ago.
