Encompassing both Maasai community territories and Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs), the West Kilimanjaro plains in northern Tanzania offer an extraordinary mix of flora and fauna amid stunning vistas of Mt. Kilimanjaro. The region, with its vast expanses of acacia woods and fertile plains, hosts an impressive selection of wildlife. Common species found here include wildebeest, zebra, gazelles, impalas, giraffes and baboons. Depending on the season, elephants might also be sighted as the plains serve as a passageway between Kenya’s Amboseli’s National Park & Mt. Kilimanjaro. The region is inhabited by the migratory Maasai herdsmen who harmoniously share these lands with the native wildlife, hence the nomenclature ‘Maasai Land’. With their abundant cultural heritage and an array of wildlife, a biking trip across these plains will appeal to those thoughtful tourists seeking a unique, far-from-the-crowd adventure that encompasses nature walks, photography, cultural immersion, and scenery.
