Lake DulutiLodge

Lake Duluti Lodge is a serene retreat perched on the forested rim of an ancient volcanic crater lake just 30 minutes from Arusha and 45 minutes from Kilimanjaro International Airport. The crater lake below, fringed by tropical forest alive with monkeys and over 130 bird species, creates an unexpectedly tranquil setting so close to the safari circuit's busiest town. Comfortable rooms with en-suite facilities look out through the canopy toward Lake Duluti's still waters and the distant profile of Mount Meru. A restaurant serves quality meals on a terrace overlooking the crater, and guided canoe trips on the lake and forest walks offer gentle activity between safari legs. The combination of proximity to Arusha's logistics and the crater's natural peace makes Lake Duluti Lodge an ideal first or last night for northern Tanzania safari itineraries.
