Materuni Waterfalls and Chemka Hot Springs

Best Season: Year round.
Climate: Cool and damp in the forest at Materuni, warm and open at Chemka.
Tanzania, Kilimanjaro Region

This is the classic Moshi day trip, and a good way to fill a spare day before or after a climb. The morning is a walk through Chagga coffee smallholdings to the base of the Materuni Waterfall, with a hands on lesson in picking, roasting and brewing along the way.

The afternoon is a drive down to Chemka, also called Kikuletwa, where a spring fed pool of astonishingly clear turquoise water sits under fig trees, perfect for a long swim.

Highlights

  • The 80 metre Materuni Waterfall
  • A full Chagga coffee experience, tree to cup
  • Swimming in the Chemka spring pool
  • Kilimanjaro views on a clear morning
Climate

Cool and damp in the forest at Materuni, warm and open at Chemka.
