Kilimanjaro to Coast 2026
Transaid’s highly-anticipated next cycle challenge on the African continent is taking riders on a spectacular 10-day adventure from Mount Kilimanjaro National Park to the coast, finishing at the mouth of the Pangani river and carrying on to the beautiful beaches of Tanga and Zanzibar.
Additional Information
Experiencing the full range of Tanzania’s stunning scenery, riders will pedal 454km through small farm towns and more rural areas, providing an opportunity to see a variety of wildlife and the beautiful vistas from the Irente Viewpoint.
We’ll begin in Moshi in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro National Park before cycling to Lake Jipe, where we’ll camp overnight and spot the famous wildlife. Then we’ll tackle the tough climbs to Irente Viewpoint, before making our way down to the lush white-sand beaches in Tanga.
Following a free day relaxing in Tanga, we’ll catch a flight to Zanzibar, where you can extend your stay.
Alternatively, you can also extend your stay in Tanzania by taking on another bucket list challenge climbing the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, if a cycle challenge wasn’t enough!
