A Day Trip in Udzungwa Mountain
Morning:
Arrival at Udzungwa National Park:
- Arrive early at the park entrance (usually by car). The drive to the park from nearby towns like Mikumi takes about 1-2 hours.
- Register at the park gate, where you’ll get a briefing about the park and safety.
Start Hiking (Sanje Waterfall Trail):
- The most popular trail in Udzungwa is the Sanje Waterfall trail. It’s a moderate hike (about 4-5 hours round trip) leading to the stunning Sanje Falls, the highest waterfall in the park.
- Enjoy scenic views of the forest, spot endemic species like the Udzungwa red colobus monkey, and witness breathtaking panoramas.
Midday:
- Explore the Waterfalls:
- Once you reach the falls, enjoy the views, take a swim in the natural pool at the bottom of the falls, or simply relax and enjoy the sound of the cascading water.
- You’ll have time for a picnic lunch here, either packed by yourself or arranged by the tour guide.
Afternoon:
Additional Short Hikes or Wildlife Viewing:
- If time permits and energy allows, you can take a shorter trail, like the Iringa Trail or the Magombera Trail, where you may spot different wildlife or have an opportunity to see other parts of the forest.
- Another option is bird watching, as the park is home to many endemic species.
Return to the Park Gate:
