First Stop: Momella Gate
Upon arrival at Momella Gate in Arusha National Park, our guide will facilitate necessary permit arrangements. Once completed, you’ll be equipped with a bicycle, a safety helmet, and accompanied by an armed ranger ensuring a safe and immersive wildlife encounter as we embark on our cycling adventure through the park.
Second Stop: Ngongongare Plains to Miniserengeti
Our journey continues through Ngongongare plains, where our support vehicle and ranger escort us. Here, we pause at the Mini Serengeti, fondly referred to as ‘Serengeti Ndogo’ in Swahili. This grassland, located around 500 meters north of Ngongongare Gate, teems with diverse wildlife, including giraffes, Cape buffalo, elephants, zebras, antelopes, warthogs, black and white colobus monkeys, and more. Its rich fauna justifies its apt moniker.
Third Stop: Mount Meru Trek Starting Point
Having pedaled 20 kilometers to the Mount Meru climbers starting point, we conclude our day tour. Here, a brief pause for refreshments allows us to mingle with Mount Meru climbers gearing up for their trekking endeavor. Following this break, a vehicle transfer awaits, leading us to our next and final destination, Lake Momella.
Last Stop: Momella Lake
Lake Momella, renowned for its alkaline properties, is a haven for a multitude of bird species, including flamingos, waterfowl, and migratory birds often found along its shores, offering a paradise for bird enthusiasts. Amidst this scenic backdrop, we’ll indulge in a lakeside lunch, relish the breathtaking views of Mount Meru, and perhaps catch sight of hippos nearby.
Conclusion
Finally, we’ll ensure your safe return to your accommodations in Moshi or Arusha. Our cycling expedition offers an enjoyable and accessible means for everyone to immerse themselves in the wonders of exploration.
