Lake Eyasi is a seasonal shallow endorheic salt lake on the floor of the Great Rift Valley. It is in northern Tanzania, south of the Ngorongoro highlands. You will have plenty of time to enjoy this tranquil environment and to absorb its natural setting. This large lake lays hight above sea level. In contrast to the savannah and arid plains of northern national parks, Lake Eyasi offers tall palm trees along its shores.
Another great sighting are the many hippos at Lake Eyasi. The lake is providing them a place to avoid the hot sun during daytime. They are known to come and cool off in its brackish waters when the lake is full. A number of other wildlife species frequent the springs in the surrounding region.
The Hadzabe bushmen live in the region around the lake. They are one of the few remaining tribes that still live the same way like they did hundreds of years ago. A visit with the bushmen is worthwhile! They subsist entirely of the bush and by bow hunting. The Hazabe Bushmen are one of the last remaining hunter-gatherers in Africa and live solely on the land. Just as in the Stone Age, like our ancestors did for thousands of years.
Lake Eyasi is easily accessible. The drive to Lake Eyasi takes around 4 hours from Arusha, 2.5 hours from Ngorongoro Crater, 2 hours from Lake Manyara.
The lake can be visited all year round. Lake Eyasi experiences a dry season from June to October and two rainy seasons which transform the landscape into a lush expanse of grasses. The short rains occur in November and December with sporadic showers and the longer rains occur from middle of March to May. Walking trails and roads will be effected by heavy rains, so it might impact the ease of for your travel.
