Our responsability

Reaching the Roof of Africa

People choose to travel to experience, to learn and to find a connection with nature and people. As travelers, we learn and explore the depth of meaning, peeling back the multiple layers of life, discovering our vulnerabilities and our courage when we connect with profoundly powerful moments in the present. Sometimes, we choose to travel to find solace and peace. We travel to reawaken our nomadic soul. To feel alive. We are instinctually rooted in a sense of migration with the rhythms of nature.

People choose to climb a mountain for many reasons. For some, it about reaching the summit, achieving a physical challenge. And for some, it's a slower experience, a spiritual and philosophical journey to reflect on life, attain clarity and enlightenment in the meditative pace of trekking in nature. Curious to unearth the story of Mount Kilimanjaro we speak with the founder of Summits Africa Ake Lindstrom, about the spiritual and philosophical journey of mountain climbing, reaching the "Roof of Africa".
