Paragliding Kilimanjaro

What started as a crazy idea between friends nearly 10 years ago, is finally turning into reality. The first ever legal paragliding flights from Uhuru Peak, Kilimanjaro, the roof of Africa, are just around the corner. The expedition has also been put together to commemorate the 50 year 'Uhuru' Celebrations in Tanzania. (Uhuru means freedom). They are hiking to the summit and planning to fly off (weather permitting) on the 16 September 2011. Follow this expedition on the website: www.livetrack24.com - Event name 2011 Paraglide Kilimanjaro - where up to the minute live tracking will be provided, from the 11 - 18 September.
