Artist Mbosso once sang of his love, saying, “I am finishing the pages of the dictionary to praise you,” before admitting he was running out of words.
Had he climbed Mount Lolmalasin, he would never have faced that challenge. The mountain, one of Africa’s top tourist attractions, inspires endless admiration.
Mount Lolmalasin is the tallest peak within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the third highest in Tanzania, rising 3,700 metres above sea level.
Its slopes are adorned with lush vegetation, flowers, and wildlife, offering panoramic views that include the distant Olmoti Crater, whose waters flow into the Ngorongoro Crater via the Munge River.
Beyond its beauty, climbing Lolmalasin strengthens the body and stretches muscles, making it an ideal preparation for taller peaks like Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro.
Visitors experience more than physical benefits the climb refreshes the mind, relieves stress, and offers a sense of being in paradise, leaving everyday worries behind.
Just as Mbosso’s love overflowed words, tourists ascending Mount Lolmalasin will find inspiration multiplying with every step.
The mountain guarantees that one will never run out of admiration for its majesty and natural charm.
Visitors are encouraged to explore Mount Lolmalasin and witness firsthand why Ngorongoro remains a world-class destination.
As the Swahili proverb goes, “Kinywa ni jumba la maneno” the mouth is a mansion of words. And tomorrow, we will bring you more stories from another must-visit attraction in Ngorongoro, proving that “Jungu kuu halikosi ukoko” the big drum never misses its beat.
