>> Safaris >> Monduli Mountains

The Monduli Mountain lie to the north-west of Arusha. This small range appears low and unimpressive when viewed from the southern side, but on the northern side it has high peaks, steep escarpments and some fine open ridges which are ideal for walking. This is a good area to consider if you want to do something other than Kilimanjaro or Meru.

The northern side of the range has some very contrasting landscapes within a fairly small area. On the lower slopes, at about 1000 metres, the landscape is dry scrubland. On the middle slopes are Maasai settlements and a few small areas of cultivation, and the higher sections consist of open grassland or are covered in forest.

The highest point of the range is the summit of Monduli Mountain itself (2660 metres). There are several smaller peaks forming a long ridge running west-east through the middle of the range from the high ground, you can get great views down into the Rift Valley, and see the giant dome of Kitumbeini rising above the plains to the north, and sometimes the distant cone of Lengai, on the horizon.
