-BOOK TO GO HIKING, KAYAKING & SWIMMING AT LAKE CHALA

The serenity and tranquility of Lake Chala offer a stark contrast to the bustling energy of Moshi town, yet it’s merely an hour’s drive away, making it an ideal destination for a unique day trip. This caldera lake, nourished by pristine, icy underground streams from Kilimanjaro itself, is renowned for its mesmerizing array of colors, transitioning from deep turquoise to emerald green to azure, and everything in between. Whether you choose to leisurely hike through the idyllic countryside surrounding the lake, take a refreshing swim in its sparkling waters (don’t forget your swimsuit!), or embark on a kayaking adventure across the border into Kenya, the options for relaxation and exploration are plentiful. You could even opt for all three activities, ensuring a day filled with intimate encounters with one of Tanzania’s most remarkable and peaceful treasures.

This excursion costs $90/p including the use of a kayak & transport to the start of this mountain hike
