We
start this walk in the Highlands of Ngorongoro where the mountains collect
moisture year round and keep the grass green and the wildlife resident. The
Highlands have extraordinary views of the surrounding plains and offer
ample opportunity for cultural interaction with the Maasai. In this
itinerary we explore the highlands then move down the slope of the mountain
towards the Serengeti. We end on the edge of the mountain ecosystem where
we can hopefully stalk plains game. Our "Wilderness Camp" is
supported by pick-up trucks.
Day
1: Lemagrut Mountain Camp 1.
Move into the walking camp on the slopes of Lemagrut mountain in the
Ngorongoro Highlands after your Ngorongoro game drive. This camp, about 30
min from the Ngorongoro Crater rim, has spectacular views of the highlands
and plenty of wildlife and Maasai.
Dinner
and overnight at Campsite
Day
2: Lemagrut Mountain Camp 2.
Today we will climb Lemagrut Mountain with our local Maasai guides. The
mountain reaches over 10,000 ft above the Serengeti Plains and has 360
degree views. In the afternoon you can visit the local maasai homesteads or
continue hiking in the highlands.
Dinner
and overnight at Campsite
Day
3: El'wai Camp 3.
Hike over the pass near Lemagrut mountain and begin the long gradual
descent eastward toward Olduvai Gorge and the Serengeti Plains. Have a
picnic lunch on the trail and then meet your camp on the slopes of the
Crater Highlands.
Dinner
and overnight at Campsite
Day
4: "Kobe Kopje" Camp 4.
Continue hiking down the gentle slopes of the highlands until you just
reach the edge of the Serengeti Plains. Wildlife should be plentiful and
your camp will be ready for your afternoon arrival.
Dinner
and overnight at Campsite
Day
5:
Hike toward Olduvai Gorge and meet the vehicles. You can then continue on
to explore Olduvai Gorge, and then drive back to Arusha.
