Activities
Rivertrees is immersed in the natural beauties indigenous to Northern Tanzania, and there is never any shortage of exploring to do. Opt for Arusha National Park and the foothills of Mt Meru a mere 15 minutes away, or spend an afternoon canoeing on Duluti’s spectacular crater lake. A cycle through the colourful bustle of the village and past smallholder coffee projects offers insight into local life.

ARUSHA NATIONAL PARK DAY
Blessed with a stunning national park on our doorstep, there are activities abounding to do justice to this special spot. For those happy to take in the sights from the seat of a jeep, a full-day game drive showcases the diversity of this lush Eden. For the more active, break the drive with an exploration on foot and absorb the cool quiet of the forest. Alternatively, trade the jeep for a canoe and take in the birdlife on Momela Lake… Or, better yet – do all three.
