Lake Eyasi

Lake Eyasi is a seasonal soda lake set beneath the dramatic walls of the Great Rift Valley, southwest of Ngorongoro. Its remote setting, open landscapes and broad views create a quieter, more intimate contrast to Tanzania’s busy national parks.The area is best known for its cultural experiences with the Hadzabe and Datoga communities. Visitors can learn about traditional hunting practices, gather around village life and gain a respectful insight into ways of life that have been preserved across generations.Lake Eyasi also offers rewarding scenery for photographers and birdwatchers, particularly when water levels attract flamingos and other waterbirds. It is an ideal addition to a Northern Circuit safari for travellers seeking culture, landscape and a different side of Tanzania.
