Ol Doinyo
Lengai ("Mountain of God")
(3450 meters) is
an active volcano on the southern shore of Lake Natron. This
impressive peak is revered by the Maasai as the sacred home of
God. A nearly perfect cone, it still erupts occasionally and you
may have the opportunity to walk on still-steaming new ground.
It is a tough drive about 3 hours off
the main road between Arusha and Ngorongoro. Once at camp, you
can go to a waterfall and relax in the river, or drive out to
the shoreline of Lake Natron and see the massive flamingo
colonies wading in the shallows.
Ol Doinyo
Lengai is the only active Sodium
Carbonate Volcano in the world. This trip will take you to
Lake Natron to view the flamingo breeding centre as well as
taking you to the summit of this amazing volcano. This trip is 4
days long and is perfect to take either before or after a
Kilimanjaro
Climb.
