Kickstart your day with a hearty breakfast and drive to the infamous Lake Natron. The drive is long but beautiful, and you will reach lodge just after lunch. Upon arrival and after lunch, your guide will take you on a walking tour to Ngaresero Waterfall. The trail runs through a gorge, and you will sometimes need to cross streams, so we recommend that you wear sandals to avoid constantly having to take your shoes off. A drive to the lakeshore, where you get a chance to capture its great scenery on camera, takes place before you return to the lodge for dinner and a rest.

Trekking time: 6 – 7 hours.
Meals included: Half board

Today, you’ll be woken up by midnight to start your hike to the summit. After something to eat, you will be driven to the base of the mountain to start your Ol Doinyo Lengai climb. The slopes of the volcano can be treacherous, especially in the dark, so follow your guide carefully. The trek is strenuous and takes between 7 and 10 hours depending on your fitness and pace.

Once at the Lengai summit, the new crater rim, you will spend sometimes taking photos and resting. Soon, you’ll begin your descent back to the base. The descend is very steep, so listen carefully to the instructions of the guide.

Your drive will be waiting at the bottom to take you to the lodge to freshen up and drive back to Arusha or continue with other activities.

Trekking time: 7-10 hrs
Meals included: Breakfast and Lunch.
