Lake Duluti is a serene volcanic crater lake tucked within the lush Duluti Forestry Reserve—more than forty acres of protected habitat alive with rich biodiversity. As you explore its peaceful shores, you may spot black-and-white colobus monkeys leaping through the treetops, vervet monkeys foraging near the forest edge, and impressive monitor lizards sunning themselves along the water. Birdwatchers will find this a true paradise, with vibrant weaver birds, elegant hamerkops, and majestic fish eagles nesting around the lake and gliding overhead.


A visit to Lake Duluti offers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Enjoy a guided nature walk through the forest, learning about the region’s plants, wildlife, and volcanic past, then take to the water for a scenic kayaking tour that brings you closer to the lake’s tranquil beauty.


To enrich your experience, you can add a coffee plantation tour, a visit to Mangalia or Napuru Waterfalls, or even a hands-on pottery lesson.


Lake Duluti can also be included as part of a Chagga Village Overnight Tour, making it a wonderful extension to a cultural and natural exploration of the region.
