Lake Natron Tented Camp is one of the few camps at Lake Natron, far from the tourist track and in a fascinating setting on the slopes of Mountain Oldonyo Lengai and the Lake Natron. It is the ideal stopover for those who want to climb Oldonyo Lengai, visit Lake Natron with its flamingoes and other lake birds, and take the adventurous route to Serengeti through Loliondo Game Controlled area to Lobo's Gate, instead of the road at Ngorongoro Crater.

Accommodation.
Unique in its setting, Lake Natron Camp is set back in a grove of trees slightly removed from the dusty terrain of the lake. Reasonably priced, modern and clean safari tents offer comfortable beds, en-suite showers and a verandah with your own private view. A fully stocked bar and restaurant with view over Lake Natron ensure you have a cold drink and good food in the evening. And the small swimming pool helps to cool off at the end of dusty Safari day.

There is also a basic campsite in pleasant lawns under shady acacias. Facilities include flush toilet and showers.


Activities.
Climbing Oldonyo Lengai can be arranged with highly experienced guides. No special equipment is required but it is a hard climb to the top due to the steepness of the mountain. You depart the camp around midnight, climb in the early morning hours to reach the top for sunrise. On the top at 2.890m you'll be rewarded with the fantastic views of Lake Natron and the surrounding landscape. Oldonyo Lengai is still active.
But there is also good (and easier...) walking around the lake. For example you can visit nearby freshwater waterfalls, where you can swim.
The lake is home to thousands of lesser flamingo's and it is one of the most important flamingo breeding grounds on earth.

Wildlife of Lake Natron

The area around Lake Natron is home to some wildlife, you might see the occasional giraffe or zebra – but this is not the main reason to come here. In stead, visit this area for its remoteness, scenery and for an interesting route into the back of Loliondo.

That said, the lake itself is home to a fascinating eco-system which thrives in this harsh environment. The lake is full of millions of Cyan bacteria - a salt loving micro organism which create their own food through photosynthesis. As the lake increases in salinity, so does the population of bacteria. The lake also supports a vast population of Spirulina, a blue-green algae with red pigments, on which the large population of Lesser Flamingoes feed on.

Ngare Sero Lake Natron Camp
Sitting on the unsheltered flats close to the lake, the tents here are shaded by a thick man-made gauze netting, which is camouflaged to blend perfectly into the landscape. The Camp has 8 guest tents and one dining/common area tent “the Boma”.
Ngare Sero Camp is a rustic option, but the food and service are good and the camp has a great atmosphere.
Many activities proposed by the Camp and arranged with one of the Maasai guides
