Chemka / Kikuletwa Hot spring Day Trip

This is probably the best place to swim. Emanating from within the earth, the geo-thermally warmed water is constantly renewed and is therefore very fresh and clear and clean. It’s a very pleasant place to spend a couple of hours with family and friends, or to relax before or after a climb or safari. Many of our clients have had at least 5 hours for this excursion after some tremendous tiresome days in the wilderness and they all enjoyed it.

The Chemka Hot Springs are an oasis in the hinterland of the Kilimanjaro region, 1-2 hours drive from Moshi town. At these restful underground springs with the crystal-clear water, you can enjoy the perfect breather after a strenuous Kilimanjaro climb or adventurous wilderness safari. But also for day trippers, they are an ideal destination for a total peaceful mind rest. For both old and young, the Chemka Hot Springs invite you to linger, swim and explore its amazing natural waters. The pond is very deep, in some places up to 10 meters, but the water is so clear that you can see the bottom well all the time. On the shore under lush trees you can camp, enjoy your snacks or soak up the sun while enjoying this wonderful weather.
