Best day trip to Lake chala

Safari summary

This best day trip to Lake Chala, a crater lake in a caldera 52 kilometers from Moshi town and on the boundary of Tanzania and Kenya, was measured at a depth of 95 meters, making it deeper than the well-known Lake Victoria. The lake, which is filled and drained by subsurface waters, swings in hue from deep blue to green, and right now it is more green due to an abundance of algae. As you watch the water gently ripple across the lake in shimmering delight, descend the 100-meter-deep crater rim to the lake's side, where you can cool your feet among the rocks. During your stay at Lake Chala, you will experience some activities such as hiking, swimming, kayaking, picnicking, wildlife viewing, and photography to fully enjoy the natural beauty of the area in 2023, 2024, 2025 and any year.
