Wild
and remote Lake Natron lies
in the northeast of Tanzania
in between the Ngorongoro Highlands
and Serengeti plains. Situated
at the base of Africa's only
active volcano Oldonyo Lengai
(Mountain of God). Lake Natron
is one of the most alkaline
lakes in the world. Home to
millions of tiny crustaceans,
the lake is a haven for literally
thousands of lesser flamingo's
and it is one of the most important
flamingo breeding grounds on
earth.

Here it is the landscape
rather than the animals
that is the attraction -
the area around the lake
is dry, desolate and hauntingly
beautiful.
Activities include evening
or morning walks on the
Lake Natron flats to see
the thousands of flamingos
and other birds, moonlit
walks, Natron tubing where
you lay on a tube and gently
float down the stream toward
Lake Natron, sundowner on
Lake Natron, dinner under
the stars on a grass mat
and cushions on the lake. |
| You can also go on
a walk to the beautiful
water falls of the Engare
Sero Gorge or ascend Oldonyo
Lengai - in this case,
you would leave the camp
at midnight, reach the
peak for sunrise and return
to the camp by noon. |
