At Mapaka Safaris we`r thrilled to offer you treks in the Pare Mountains, as we consider this area to be the hidden gem of Northeastern Tanzania. If you are looking to explore quiet, overgrown paths used predominately by locals, this is the option for you!
The South Pare Mountains are about 100 km (62 miles) south of Moshi. Rising from the surrounding plains, the winding roads take visitors high into the mountains where they can experience some of Tanzania’s most stunning scenery along with a 2,000-year-old place of worship where people have prayed since the beginning of the Common Era.
Additionally, this area offers a view into traditional African village life. Narrow foot paths wind through the mountains connecting the villages in the area. Whether you decide to hike to Shengena Peak, witness self-subsistent farmers working their crops as you trek from village to village, or visit the Malameni Caves; the Pares have much to offer.
