1Trek from the Ngorongoro Highlands to Lake Natron, Tanzania
Tanzania has long been a hiker’s paradise. But beyond the lofty peak of Kilimanjaro, there are numerous walking safaris and shorter treks that take you off the beaten track and into the bush. However, few rival the epic route across the spectacular Ngorongoro Highlands to Lake Natron. This immense area is one of the best safari destinations in northern Tanzania. Book a walking tour led by Maasai guides and soak up incredible vistas of peaks like Meru and Olmoti and traverse the Empakaai Crater. You’ll visit traditional Tanzanian villages and spot wild animals, from lions and bushbucks to endangered black rhinos and blue monkeys.
The multi-day trek typically finishes up at mineral-rich Lake Natron, in the shadow of the volcanic Oldonyo Lengai, or Mountain of God. The lake’s unique alkaline content makes it a haven for crustaceans, attracting huge flocks of bright-pink flamingos.
