Day One, Forest Zone
Crown shyness (also canopy disengagement, canopy shyness,or intercrown spacing) is a phenomenon observed in some tree species, in which the crowns of fully stocked trees do not touch each other, forming a canopy with channel-like gaps.
Gazing up at the canopy from the Mt.Kilimanjaro forest zone, this phenomenon creates dazzling tributaries of light that appear to flow through the towering tree tops above. It is truly an enchanted experience walking amongst these ancient trees.

Day Two, Heath & Moorland
Passing through The Heath & Moorland region of Mt.Kilimanjaro can be likened to entering a surreal portal enveloped with a magical aura.
Interspersed on the ‘Jurassic’ landscape are giant alien looking groundsels, having adapted to high altitude. This is a merging of worlds; Forest Zone behind and the Desert Zone ahead.
