Hiking Ol Doinyo Lengai

Rising dramatically from the East African Rift Valley, Ol Doinyo Lengai is a sacred and active stratovolcano located in northern Tanzania. Known as the “Mountain of God” in the Maasai language, Ol Doinyo Lengai holds significant cultural and geological importance. Its unique composition of natrocarbonatite lava, one of the few in the world, gives it a distinctively white appearance and makes it one of the world’s few active carbonatite volcanoes. The challenging ascent to the summit rewards climbers with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and a glimpse into the earth’s fiery core. Capybara Safari offers guided expeditions to Ol Doinyo Lengai, providing adventurers with an opportunity to explore this awe-inspiring natural wonder.

DISCOVER LAKE NATRON

Nestled at the base of the Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano lies Lake Natron, a saline lake renowned for its otherworldly beauty and unique ecosystem. With its high alkalinity and mineral-rich waters, Lake Natron supports thriving populations of flamingos, making it a haven for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts. The lake’s striking pink hue, caused by the presence of algae and salt-loving microorganisms, creates a surreal and mesmerizing landscape. Beyond its scenic allure, Lake Natron holds cultural significance for the Maasai people, who have lived in harmony with its harsh yet bountiful environment for generations. Capybara Safari offers guided tours to Lake Natron, allowing visitors to witness its natural wonders and immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Maasai culture.

A great Kilimanjaro experience I have recently climbed Kilimanjaro with Brighton and his crew and I had an outstanding experience. The meals were always amazing, lots of food as well. One of our guys struggled a little with altitude sickness, but everyone made sure that he will make it up the top, but all in a safe manner. Brighton is a very knowledgeable guy in the area and has been running Kilimanjaro tours for a very long time and you can see and feel his experience in any possible way. I can’t recommend him and his crew enough!

First time - not the last time This was my first trekking trip, and it was amazing.The whole Crew was always very Kind and polite, every one helped us going up to the top. The food was really good we had plenty to eat even on top of the mountain! The mood was always good, we had a lot of fun and felt safe all the time. We did some safety stops for getting used to the height. The tents were always made by the crewMy guide was a super funny guy from moshi who kept the motivation high and pushed us to go further. It was a great experience and I would recommend any time

Hiking Kilimanjaro I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to climb up Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route. Although the trek was challenging- especially getting to the summit, it was lots of fun and I had the chance to experience some spectacular scenery and nature along the way. The support of all the team was first class and I would recommend this for anyone considering taking up the Kilimanjaro challenge!
