From the Londorossi Park Gate located on the western side of Kilimanjaro where we pick up our game ranger who will accompany us, as we might encounter elephants and buffaloes during our trek. We drive to the trailhead at Lemosho Glades and start our trek through the rain forest. In places, the vegetation is so untouched that it grows right across the narrow track. The flora and fauna are richer here than on the other more popular routes through the rain forest. Our trek today will be along a little used track known as Chamber's Route. In about 3-4 hours, we reach our camp in the rain forest at Mti Mkubwa (Big Tree).

we start the climb cross the remaining rain forest towards the giant moorland zone. Today is a full day trek with an altitude gain of 2,000 ft. A great lunch stop is One, a beautiful valley just outside the Shira Crater at around 10,000 ft. After lunch, we cross into the Shira Caldera, a high altitude desert plateau that is rarely visited. Shira is the third of Kilimanjaro volcanic cones, and is filled with lava flow from Kibo Peak. The crater rim has been decimated by weather and volcanic action. Today you will get your first close views of Kibo - the dramatic summit of Kilimanjaro.

Our day starts by descending into the start of the Great Barranco, a huge ravine. We then exit steeply, up the Great Barranco Wall, which divides us from the southeastern slopes of Kibo. It’s a climb over rock, not technical but long and tiring. Passing underneath the Heim and Kersten glaciers, we head towards the Karanga valley. From here we have a steep climb up from Karanga valley to our night’s camp at Karanga camp, set at 3963m.

Uhuru Peak - Mt Kilimanjaro
Tucked away in Tanzania, East Africa, there's a truly amazing spot that calls out to all the daring souls out there – Uhuru Peak on Mt Kilimanjaro. Towering high at 19,341 feet above sea level, it proudly claims the title of Africa's highest point, with a beauty that's simply enchanting.
Your journey to Uhuru Peak unfolds like a magical tapestry of landscapes. Starting low, you'll wander through vibrant rainforests, alive with bird songs and playful Colobus monkeys. Moving higher, you'll cross over into an otherworldly alpine desert, where strange rock formations and ancient lava shapes paint a surreal picture that's both spooky and captivating.
Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro isn't just about breathtaking views – it's your chance to catch glimpses of wildlife in their natural habitat. Keep your eyes peeled for elephants, leopards, and buffalos as you trek through the forests. These encounters serve as a beautiful reminder of our deep connection to nature, a bond often overlooked in our busy lives.
Pressing on towards Uhuru Peak, you'll enter a world of profound silence, broken only by your footsteps and heartbeat. The air thins, the cold nips at you, and the vastness of it all can feel a bit overwhelming. Yet with each step upward, you edge closer to the lofty summit where sky and earth, physical and spiritual, blend into one.
Standing atop Uhuru Peak is a memory that'll stick with you forever. From the peak, as you gaze over rugged landscapes stretching endlessly, a sense of pride and accomplishment washes over you. It's a view of nature's raw beauty at its most unfiltered, a sight reserved for the lucky few who venture here.
For the best experience, plan your visit during the dry season, usually from July to October. The weather is mild, the skies clear, and the trekking conditions are at their best. Just remember, Kilimanjaro can be challenging and unpredictable, so proper preparation and acclimatization are keys to a successful summit attempt.
In essence, the allure of Uhuru Peak and Mt Kilimanjaro goes beyond words. It's a place of pure beauty where nature's might shines brightest, and where climbers are tested in body, mind, and spirit. So if you seek an adventure that pushes your limits and leaves you in awe, look no further than the grand heights of Uhuru Peak – a place where incredible stories are made.

A highlight of the park is the majestic Tarangire River, a lifeline that supports a rich diversity of wildlife year-round. During the dry season, this river becomes a crucial oasis, drawing in immense herds of elephants, wildebeests, zebras, and buffalo. Witnessing these gentle giants congregating along the riverbanks is a humbling spectacle, showcasing the resilience and delicate balance of life in the untamed.
Tarangire is also famed for its vibrant bird population, with over 500 species recorded within its borders. From the colorful lilac-breasted rollers to the regal African fish eagles, the skies are alive with the symphonies and hues of these feathered residents. Bird enthusiasts will find themselves entranced as they spot rare and endemic species flitting through the acacia trees.
For those yearning to deepen their bond with nature, Tarangire offers a variety of activities to truly connect with the wild. Guided walking safaris provide an opportunity to explore the intricate wonders of the bush, from tiny insects to the subtle traces left by passing wildlife. The rustle of the wind in the grass and the earthy aroma of the soil beneath your feet create a sensory journey to a primordial world untouched by time.
As the sun sets towards the horizon, embarking on a sunset game drive becomes a must-do in Tarangire. The gentle golden light bathes the land in a warm glow, painting the sky in hues of pink and orange, and creating long shadows. This magical time of day offers prime chances to witness predators in action, with lions and leopards rousing from their daytime slumber to start their nocturnal quests.
The ideal time to visit Tarangire National Park is during the dry season from June to October, when wildlife congregates around the Tarangire River in search of water. This time also aligns with the Great Migration in the nearby Serengeti, offering a glimpse of massive herds of wildebeest and zebras on the move.
In the heart of Tarangire National Park, time seems to pause, allowing visitors to witness the tapestry of life unfolding in its most raw and authentic form. From the serene giants of the savannah to the lively birdlife filling the air with melodies, every moment spent in this wilderness is a testament to the interconnectedness of all living creatures. Tarangire welcomes you to stray from the usual path and step into a realm where nature reigns supreme, providing a peek into the unshackled allure of the African wilderness.

Lake Manyara National Park

Lake Manyara National Park
Deep in Tanzania, nestled at the foot of the Great Rift Valley, lies an incredible place called Lake Manyara National Park. It's a huge park, covering 125 square miles, and it's like a dream come true for anyone who loves animals and nature. When the sun starts to rise, the sky turns all shades of pink and orange, and that's when the real magic of Lake Manyara begins to show itself.
As soon as you step into the park, you're surrounded by thick green forests and a whole bunch of different birds singing all around you. Watch out for the sneaky leopards that blend in perfectly with the trees - they're real experts at hiding in this lush forest.
Further into the park, the scenery changes completely, and you'll come across the huge Lake Manyara itself. The lake shines like a mirror in the sunlight and is filled with so many flamingos that turn the horizon pink with their beauty. Seeing all these graceful birds taking off together is just amazing, showing how incredible nature can be.
But it's not just the flamingos you'll spot at Lake Manyara. There are lots of different animals living here too, like elephants and impalas, all playing a part in keeping the park's ecosystem healthy. Keep an eye out for the rare tree-climbing lions - it's not something you see every day, and spotting one of these majestic creatures high in the trees is a real treat.
If you're up for a more adventurous experience, try a guided walking safari through the park. Walking where ancient tribes once walked, discovering hidden spots only reachable on foot - it's a real thrill to feel so close to nature.
The best time to visit Lake Manyara National Park is from June to September when it's dry. The animals hang out near the water, making them easier to spot, and the weather is nice too. But visiting during the wet season, from November to May, can also be super rewarding as everything turns lush and green, and newborn animals run around joyfully.
In the end, Lake Manyara isn't just a place to visit - it's an unforgettable experience that will stick with you for a long time. It's where you can forget about time and truly appreciate the beauty of nature. So, pack your bags, put on your walking shoes, and get ready for a one-of-a-kind adventure at Lake Manyara.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area
Welcome to the stunning Ngorongoro Conservation Area in Tanzania! Here, nature's beauty unfolds before your eyes in the most amazing way. Let's take a virtual journey through this incredible wilderness together.
Imagine yourself at the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater, a famous landmark in Africa. Look down into the crater and see a diverse range of wildlife thriving below – elephants, zebras, lions, and even the elusive black rhino. It's like watching a vibrant show of life, a true reflection of the untouched African wilderness.
As you explore further, you'll find that the wonders of Ngorongoro extend beyond the crater. The landscape is a mix of savannah, woodlands, and sparkling soda lakes, home to a variety of bird species. Pink flamingos wade in the water, while eagles soar above in the sky. Every corner you turn reveals a new and enchanting scenery.
Beyond the wildlife, what captivates visitors to Ngorongoro is the feeling of being in a timeless place where nature is king. As you go on a game drive, you'll feel a deep connection with the land and its creatures. The rustling of grass, the distant lion's roar, the swaying acacia trees – each moment showcases the beauty of the natural world.
For an immersive experience, camping in Ngorongoro is a must-do. Picture spending the night under the stars, falling asleep to the sounds of the African night. In the morning, wake up to birds singing and the sun rising. It's a unique experience to disconnect from the modern world and bond with nature's rhythms.
The best time to visit is during the dry season from June to September. The months of January and February are also great for game viewing due to the wildebeest migration. Make sure to book your stay early because Ngorongoro is a popular destination.
Whether you're a seasoned safari-goer or a newbie to Africa, Ngorongoro will leave a lasting impression. It's a place of wonder, where the beauty of life unfolds in all its glory. Pack your bags, set your sights on this natural paradise, and prepare to be amazed. Ngorongoro is calling – will you answer?
