Materuni Waterfalls
A 90-metre Chagga waterfall on Kilimanjaro's southern slopes.
Why Materuni Waterfalls
Materuni village sits on the Kilimanjaro foothills, surrounded by banana and coffee plantations. A short forest hike leads to a powerful 90-metre waterfall ideal for cooling off.
Most visitors combine the falls with a coffee-roasting demonstration in the village — a great half-day from Moshi or Arusha.
