Is Mount Kilimanjaro have a cool climate all year?

Mount Kilimanjaro has a diverse climate that varies with altitude. While the lower slopes experience a warm and humid climate, temperatures decrease significantly at higher elevations, leading to a cooler climate, particularly in the alpine zone. The summit can be quite cold year-round, often with snow and ice. Thus, while cooler than many regions, the mountain does not have a uniformly cool climate throughout.

And it is because of its height that mount Kilimanjaro gradually gets colder when you climb up, and why at summit level, it is covered with snow.
