Hidden among fig trees between Arusha and Moshi, the Kikuletwa (Chemka) Hot Springs are pools of astonishingly clear turquoise water at a constant, comfortable temperature — perfect for swimming, rope swings and an unhurried afternoon in the shade.
The pools stay a constant, comfortable temperature year-round, fed by underground springs, with fig tree roots forming natural platforms to swim from and jump off.
Best time to visit
Year-round; weekdays are quieter than weekends.
