Materuni Waterfalls and Kikuletwa Hot Spring

Materuni Waterfalls
Nestled at the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, Materuni Waterfalls is one of the tallest and most spectacular falls in the region. Surrounded by lush tropical rainforest and coffee plantations, the waterfall plunges about 90 meters into a clear natural pool at its base. The area is also home to the Chagga people, and visitors often get the chance to experience local culture, taste freshly brewed coffee, and enjoy breathtaking views of Kilimanjaro on a clear day. The hike to the falls is moderate, taking you through beautiful scenery with rich biodiversity, making it both adventurous and refreshing.

Kikuletwa Hot Springs
Also known as Chemka Hot Springs, this hidden oasis lies in the middle of a semi-arid landscape near the town of Boma. Despite being called hot springs, the water is crystal-clear, cool, and perfect for swimming. Shaded by towering fig trees with roots that dip into the turquoise pools, the place feels tranquil and inviting. Rope swings, small fish that gently nibble at your feet, and the calm atmosphere make it a popular spot to relax after exploring other attractions nearby. It’s an ideal location to unwind, swim, and enjoy the natural beauty of Tanzania.
