LAKE NATRON

Lake Natron is off the beaten track, with attractions including a river walk with two waterfalls, a hike across a soda lake with flamingos, and a trek up Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active volcano. Ol Doinyo Lengai is located in the heart of the Great Rift Valley and has erupted at least a dozen times over the last century. A challenging hike to the top of the "Mountain of God" offers an opportunity to view molten lava. Visitors to Lake Natron can also interact with the local Maasai community.
