About trip
Ol Doinyo Lengai or Oldoinyo Lengai means “Mountain of God” in the local Maasai language. It is a sacred volcano, which erupted last in 2013. We offer 1 or 2 days trip. The one day includes the ascension to the mountain, while the two days trip allows you also to visit a remote Masaai tribe, which still nowadays is totally separated by civilization. They live of hunting, honey and wild fruits harvesting. Our trip will be respectful of their environment and culture. The two days trip also allows you to pass by the beautiful Lake Natron, most famous for its pink flamingos.
