The Outing

About this outing.

On the slopes of Mount Meru in Arusha, is one of northern Tanzania’s most rewarding birding areas and a hotspot for forest and montane species. This 2-day camping trip takes us out specifically to experience the magic of the morning and evening birds’ chorus. Alongside bird watching you will get to enjoy nature-based games, a waterfall walk, storytelling around the campfire, and creative activities turning the forest into a fun, immersive outdoor classroom for all ages.
