Join our Chemka Hot Springs Day Trip in 2026 from Moshi. Relax in crystal-clear turquoise pools, swim, snorkel or enjoy rope swings in this hidden oasis with expert guides. All fees, lunch and transfers included.
Imagine soaking in warm, crystal-clear turquoise waters surrounded by lush fig trees, palm roots and tropical greenery – a true hidden paradise fed by Mount Kilimanjaro's springs. That’s the magic of Chemka (also called Kikuletwa or Maji Moto) Hot Springs.
This full-day relaxation escape is ideal for unwinding after a Kilimanjaro climb, Serengeti safari or busy travel. In just one day, you’ll swim in refreshing geothermal pools, try rope swings, get a natural fish pedicure from Garra rufa, spot monkeys and enjoy a peaceful picnic lunch in nature.
