After a picnic lunch on the crater floor, ascend and begin your scenic drive back to Arusha. Arrive in the late afternoon and check in at Arusha Farm House for dinner and overnight stay.
After breakfast, depart from your lodge and head to Chemka Hot Springs, a hidden oasis surrounded by lush greenery. Enjoy a relaxing swim in the crystal-clear, warm waters and take in the serene atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after days of adventure. You can relax, explore the area, or enjoy a picnic lunch under the shade of the trees.
