You have the choice between independent exploring, on a self-guided trip, and following the lead of an experienced guide with a small group on a guided walking holiday.
Karatu Country Walk to Lake and Mountain
If you are looking for a peaceful country hiking day this Karatu country walk is a nice touch to get a taste of real Tanzania. Start in town and work your way down to the Karatu lake, walk further to the mountain. Once you reach the top of the mountain you will be surprised of the breathtaking view around. On the way you can see and visit local families and see the way of their life.
Ngorongoro Conservation Area Biking/Hiking
Nature lovers will want to consider a bike and walk in the Ngorongoro Forest Highlands. With a guide, you’ll learn about medicinal plants, view a number of bird species, watch waterfalls tumble down a cliff and see the elephant caves. If you are lucky, you may also see a number of animals who live in the forest such as elephants, buffalo, baboons, and various reptiles. The so-called elephant caves are where elephants as well as a number of other species come to extract salt and other minerals from the soil. Remember that while your chances of seeing a buffalo or elephants aren’t high these animals walk these same paths every day. Later go back to Karatu.
