After 5 years of product development the Lake Natron team is excited to announce 2 new glamping treks featuring new camps in Tanzania. The new, uprated camps are being protyped now for release in January 2019. There are 2 seperate trekking routes of 2 nights each that can be combined with Lake Natron Camp as the fulcrum to create a complete week of amazing trekking, ending in Nasera rock. The first trek, "The Great Rift Valley Trek" is Empakai Crater to Lake Natron featuring our Empakai Camp (Empakai crater rim) and Leonotis Camp (mid way down the rift valley) and is the ideal link from Ngorongoro to Natron. The "Walking in the footpsteps of early man" is a trek back through millennia of evolution from the relatively recent hominid footprints right by our Lake Natron Camp, all the way to Olduvai, commonly known as “one of the most important paleoanthropological sites in the world” and home to evidence of our earliest ancestors. A total of 6 nights trekking OR either trek can be selected in isolation to suit customised itineraries. Each camp location and design is being targeted at guests that are looking for an off the beaten track experience, entirely respectful of the environment, and yet just enough comfort to ensure a superlative well balanced adventure. These treks can be booked in the 2018 seasons under our existing "expedition camping specification". Contact us for more information.
