There are actually three peaks on Kilimanjaro, despite many people seeing one mountain with a big hump.

The peaks of Kilimanjaro are the following:Shira Peak (3962 meters), Uhuru Peak (5896 meters) and Mawenzi (5149 meters).

Shira and Mawenzi are both extinct volcanoes. Mawenzi is the third highest peak in Africa after Mount Kenya.
