Northern Rift Valley
Lake Natron
An otherworldly volcanic lake beneath Ol Doinyo Lengai
A remote, caustic soda lake in the shadow of the active volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai — home to flocks of flamingos, Maasai communities who still live off this land, and some of the most dramatic, least-visited scenery in northern Tanzania. Best explored slowly, on foot, with a local guide.
