Materuni Waterfalls are a series of cascading waterfalls located in the Materuni village, approximately 18 km from Moshi, Tanzania. The main waterfall stands at an impressive height of around 80 meters, making it one of the tallest in the Kilimanjaro region. The falls are fed by the Materuni River, which originates from the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Visiting the Materuni Waterfalls involves a moderately challenging hike through the lush, green vegetation of the Materuni Forest, where you can swim in the natural pools at the base of the falls and learn about the traditional way of life of the local Chagga people of Materuni village.
The Chemka Hot Springs (Kikuletwa), also known as the Kivulini Hot Springs, are located approximately 45 km from Moshi Town, and 35km away from Arusha, near the village of Kikuletwa. The hot springs are a series of natural, geothermal pools with clear, turquoise-colored water that is heated by volcanic activity in the region. The water maintains a consistent temperature of around 30-35°C (86-95°F), and you can enjoy the therapeutic properties of the mineral-rich waters while surrounded by a serene, tropical environment. The Chemka Hot Springs are a popular destination for swimming, relaxation, and photography.
