Materuni Waterfalls

Materuni Waterfalls, located just outside Moshi at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, is a breathtaking natural attraction and one of Tanzania’s best-kept secrets. Surrounded by lush green vegetation, banana plantations, and coffee farms, the falls cascade nearly 150 meters down a cliff into a refreshing natural pool. The area is part of the Materuni village, home to the Chagga people, offering not just scenic beauty but also an authentic cultural experience. Visitors can enjoy a guided hike through scenic trails leading to the waterfall while learning about local plants, traditions, and farming practices. A highlight of the trip is experiencing the traditional coffee-making process with the locals, where you’ll roast, grind, and brew fresh Arabica coffee. Materuni Waterfalls combines nature, culture, and adventure, making it a must-visit destination for those exploring Kilimanjaro or seeking a peaceful escape into Tanzania’s countryside.
