Arusha - West Kilimanjaro

Another beautiful day begins with a light, delicious breakfast. Today we will cover 44 km from our lodge to the steppe Maasai village located between the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru. Our tour will cover the beautiful Arusha National Park and nearby villages. We will overnight at the lodge on a full board basis.

From the lodge to the Ngongongare Gate, we will cover seven km on tarmac road. Then, from Ngongongare Gate to Nassula Gate, we will cover 15 km crossing through the wildlife area of Arusha National Park. The road is rough but very nice for biking. You will cross through thick forest and cool weather, as the park is very close to Mount Meru, the second-highest mountain in Tanzania after Kilimanjaro.

This beautiful morning around the Maasai Steppe village finds us between Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru. Wake up very early to enjoy the beautiful sunrise over Mount Kilimanjaro’s summit, with birdsong and cool breezes, then head to the main lounge for breakfast.

The first 14 km, from the lodge to the main road toward Londorosi Gate, will be on rough road. The remaining 25 km will be on tarmac road. The terrain will be moderate hills, with some sections quite steep. We will pass through villages such as Magadini, Ngare Nairobi, and Matadi. Between these villages, we will stop for refreshments and snacks. Along the way, we will see large wheat plantations and local villages. If we arrive early at the lodge, we will take time to rest in the evening.
