Mountain biking in West Kilimanjaro is a fun and thrilling way to experience one of the Tanzania’s great game reserves.
If you’re reasonably fit, are confident on a bike and have a sense of adventure, then cycling through this great wilderness area is an awesome experience. Imagine the thrill of pedaling along red dirt roads, feeling the sun on your back, surrounded by endless spectacular horizons when, suddenly,you spot a herd of zebra, Impala, wildebeest, grazing in the distance. No matter how many morewild animals you see during your holiday, you’ll never forget your first sighting of wild animals in their natural habitat.
At 07-00 hrs. You will be transferred from your hotel in Moshi to Simba Farm where we will start bike tour. Our cycle today starts with a downhill slope through the farm as we head toward the main rough road. We will follow the main rough road through the Ngare Nairobi village and cycle along the Ndarakwai Conservancy border towards the West Kilimanjaro airstrip. We will then follow the main dirt road towards the Tinga Tinga village. We will then proceed south towards the Ngabobo Village cycling through the dry and arid open grasslands, an environment completely different from the lush, green slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro which you have left behind. Wildlife such as wildebeest, giraffes, zebra and elands can be seen on this section of the ride. The final part of the path is a gradual ascent on a gravel road as you cycle through the Ngabobo Village towards the Maasai lodge where tours end. You will then be transferred to your hotel.
