Description

Begin your adventure with a scenic hike led by a local guide, winding through small farms, banana plantations, and vibrant green hills. The trail is moderately challenging, making it a refreshing mix of exercise and exploration. As you ascend, pass through dense tropical vegetation, hear birds singing, and possibly spot monkeys in the trees. The air is fresh, and the views are stunning. Upon reaching Napuru Waterfalls, be welcomed by the sound of cascading water plunging into a natural pool below. Take a break here—dip your feet in the cool water or go for a full swim in the shallow basin. Many tours include a visit to a nearby village or a local family home. Learn about Meru traditions, farming techniques, and even taste locally grown coffee or banana beer if offered. As you ascend toward the waterfall, get sweeping views of the surrounding countryside, the town of Arusha in the distance, and sometimes even Mount Kilimanjaro on clear days. The landscape is a mixture of natural forest and cultivated land. See banana trees, avocado, coffee plants, and more, all thriving in the rich volcanic soil. Napuru Waterfalls is about 20-25 meters high, surrounded by ferns, moss-covered rocks, and thick foliage. It’s picturesque, peaceful, and perfect for photos.
