Lake Chala is a crater lake in a caldera on the border of Tanzania and Kenya, East Africa. Lake Chala is on the eastern edge of Mount Kilimanjaro, 8 kilometers north of Taveta and 55 kilometers from the town of Moshi. Depending on the time of the year, Lake Chala ranges in color from deep blue to turquoise and green.
The lake is fed by groundwater flows which come from Mount Kilimanjaro, fed and drained underground with a rate of about ten million cubic meters per year. It is surrounded by 100-meter high crater rim. The lake is home to the endemic Lake Chala tilapia (Oreochromis hunteri) which is now considered critically endangered on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
The stunning volcanic area is rapidly growing in tourism and it is now possible to stay at Lake Chala. The lake is safe for swimming; however, as everywhere in Africa, it pays to be careful.
The Elephant Motel is ideally situated along the Moshi-Dar es Salaam road, only half a kilometer from the town of Same. The motel offers spectacular views of the South Pare Mountains and because of its location, it is the ideal gateway to Mkomazi National Park, the South Pare Mountains, and Shengena forest.
Mambo village, on the far northwestern rim of the Usambara Mountains, is perched on a cliff overlooking the Masaai plains and Mkomazi National Park. Authentic, easy going, and a place to experience rural African life as it comes and goes. Rustic MamboViewPoint Eco Lodge is in the middle of things and is also the home base for some unique community projects. The beautiful cottages, build in an authentic style, are comfortable and with a beautiful sunset view from your own terrace.
The Usambara Mountains of northeastern Tanzania in tropical East Africa comprises the easternmost ranges of the Eastern Arc Mountains. They were formed nearly two million years ago by faulting and uplifting, and are composed of Precambrian metamorphic rocks. They are split into two sub-ranges; the West Usambara Mountains being higher than the East Usambara Mountains which are nearer the coast and receive more rainfall. With their wide vistas, cool climate, winding paths, and picturesque villages, the Usambara Mountains is one of Tanzanian's highlights.
Nobody knows which people first settled in the Usambara Mountains, only that the ancestors of the present Sambaa people came hundreds of years ago. In the middle 18th century, a Sambaa kingdom existed which had about 60.000 people. In the latter half of the 19th century, it is reported that there was a lot of war and terror with neighboring tribes which ended with the German colonization.
The Germans discovered the charm of the Usambara Mountains and they established Lushoto (during those days of Wilhelmsthal) and it was a favored holiday spot for colonial administrators. Besides the historical sites, the Usambara Mountains has a lot of interesting places and activities. It is an exquisite place for hiking, birdwatching, mountain biking, or relaxing.
Rozana Lodge is located at Simanjiro District. The meals will be based on African food experience and all drinks will be available on a way reasonable price.
The Maasai Steppe Conservancy is located between the Tarangire National Park and the Simanjiro Plains, within the Northern Safari Circuit. Safaris in the Maasai Steppe provide a wonderfully varied experience for people wanting a combination of wildlife viewing, walking, and authentic, "un-canned" cultural experiences with the Maasai.
The Maasai Steppe is a vibrant and important ecological stronghold for the wildlife and people of northern Tanzania. Nearly 92% of this critical ecosystem is designated as the Maasai village lands where livestock husbandry represents the primary livelihood. Maintaining healthy rangelands is critical to both the Maasai people and the wildlife dependent on this arid environment.
Lilac Campsite and Tented Camp, accommodation for the night, is set in its natural environment that has its natural residents. There are a pack of black-faced vervet monkeys, a pack of banded mongooses, a pair of slender mongooses. At night, you can hear the bush baby calling out his territory and sometimes you can hear the hyena howling at a distance as Lake Manyara National Park boundary is just 1.5 kilometers away from the camp.
Mto wa Mbu village lies within the East African valley. It is among the most active villages in northern Tanzania and it is the best stopover for tourist touring to the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara National Park, and Tarangire National Park. Mto wa Mbu borders Lake Manyara National Park to the eastsouth side and the lake itself. Mto wa Mbu exports mainly bananas. There are over thirty species of banana in the village being introduced from various part of the country mainly Kagera and Mbeya region.
After breakfast, you are going to leave an awesome lodge, riding on rift valley escarpment towards the Hadza community. Hunters and gatherers in the East and Southern Africa exist; you are going to hunt with them on their grounds.
The trip will take you east along winding dirt trails away from the lush area surrounding the mountain and out into the savannah scenery of the Maasai plains. You will ride towards the wall of the Great Rift Valley at the base of which stands the mighty volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai. The Ol Doinyo Lengai is an active volcano which last erupted in the 1970s. It is revered by the Maasai as the home of 'Ngai', their god. It's almost perfect cone looms over an area of astonishing barren beauty.
At the foot of the mountain, there is an area of rocky desert. Here, you find the cones of a small extinct volcano and Lake Natron, a huge soda lake which stretches up to the Kenyan border. Flamingos come here to breed and in the late afternoon, the colorful flamingo colonies make a spectacular sight, adding a dash of color against the shimmering water.
You pack up camp and follow trails. Along the way, you will see Maasai people in traditional dress tending their herds. There is a good chance of seeing game animals close to the track. Zebra and antelope are often seen in this area, perhaps you will even see a giraffe or if you are very lucky, elephant.
You stop for a break at a huge crater and then push on to Engaruka for lunch. After lunch, you will head back to Arusha where a cold drink will be waiting for you and you can tell stories from your safari.
