Itinerary

1. Nestled just 15 kilometers from Moshi Town and situated at the edge of Kilimanjaro National Park lies Materuni, an authentic tribal village inhabited by the Chagga people. Embark on a scenic 40-minute hike to the mesmerizing Materuni Waterfalls, where towering cascades of water plunge over 80 meters into a refreshing pool. Prepare for the hike with sturdy hiking boots, as the trail can be slippery and muddy. Along the way, you may catch a glimpse of the majestic Kilimanjaro summit. Upon reaching the waterfalls, take a refreshing dip in the pool and savor the breathtaking scenery. Afterward, return to Materuni Village and indulge in a traditional Chagga lunch, followed by a taste of the local banana beer, a specialty crafted by the skilled Chagga brewers.
