The full day hike is an 8-hour (18km) hike up to the eastern peak of Monduli Mountains. Day 2: Monduli Juu to Naramatu It’s an early start for a tasty, hearty breakfast in the cool African dawn and after we strike camp you’ve a choice of a full day or half day hike.
Now’s the time to decide how challenging you’d like tomorrow to be to climb or not to climb? Tomorrow it’s an ascent of Monduli Mountain or a less challenging but equally beautiful shorter trek. In the afternoon we’ll set up home at the pretty little campsite of Osero nearby and eat our evening meal by campfire. You’ll be welcomed in a traditional boma, or round, earthern home and learn about the daily lives of these hardy nomadic people. You’ll get an opportunity to learn about traditional Maasai medicine from a local midwife and a herbal doctor, and find out how the medicinal herbs are gathered and prepared. These villages are steeped in authentic Maasai culture, and the Maasai people are welcoming and keen to share their culture with you. 1.5l water per day tea and coffee with mealsĭay 1: Moshi or Arusha to Monduli Juu Make sure you fill up with a hearty breakfast as you’ve a full day ahead of you!
