Ol Doinyo Lengai mountain

Today very early in the morning, we'll t drive to the base of the Ol Doinyo Lengai mountain. We will start the climb so as to gain as much height as possible in the cool of the morning. We'll reach the summit during sunrise and spend some time there before coming down to the base of the mountain. From there, clients will be transferred by jeep to the camp for shower and rest. Sun hats and large water intake are essential. Afterward, we'll descend by the same route. Great care should be taken on the way down as loose volcanic gravel on the bare rock makes it perilous. Bringing trekking poles is encouraged as it's very helpful. Your overnight stay will be at a camp.
