What to do in Mbeya ?
Kitulo Plateau - National Park
Southeast of the city, Kitulo Plateau National Park is known for its colorful wildflowers; its orchids and native flora. The plateau is located at an altitude of 2600m. A wonderful area for walking tours.
The locals also refer to the Kitulo Plateau as ‘Bustani ya Mungu’ – the Garden of God. Kitulo is therefore a wonderful floral spectacle for about 350 species of plants, including 45 species of orchids that bloom luxuriantly during the rainy season from late November to April.
You can make beautiful trips here on foot and on horseback. The only game that runs there are the reedbuck and elk.
Kitulo is also a birdwatching area. For example, the endangered blue swallow breeds here.
Ngosi crater lake
Just south of Mbeya is Lake Ngosi, a huge crater lake surrounded by a dense forest, rich in birdlife. The green shimmering Ngosi Crater Lake was formed about a million years ago. The wide caldera is filled with shiny alkaline ‘soda’ water. The lake has spiritual significance for the local residents. The waters of the lake are said to have magical medicinal powers.
The picturesque lake is located at an altitude of 2600 m in the Uporoto mountains. You can hike or climb there with special guides who are familiar with the route through this dense Uporoto forest. A 2-hour route leads past waterfalls, gorges and valleys. Along the way you will encounter Colobus monkeys and many bird species.
Mbozi Meteorite
About 70 kilometers from the town of Mbeya on Marengi Hill, is the fascinating Mbozi Meteorite.
The huge meteorite – measuring 12 tons, 3m long and 1m high – was discovered in 1930 when only the top was visible. It is the world’s eighth largest meteoroid or shooting star.
Unlike most meteorites that consist of silica, the Mbozi meterite consists mainly of iron (90.45 percent) and nickel (8.69 percent).
The locals in Mbozi refer to the meteorite with the Kiswahili name ‘Kimwondo’. There are no stories or legends about the impact. The meteorite probably fell about 1000 years before the first inhabitants arrived in this area.
Kalambo Forest Reserve
West of Mbeya lies the Kalambo Nature Forest Reserve, a small nature reserve whose main attraction is the 250m high Kalambo Waterfalls. This waterfalls, on the border of Zambia and Tanzania, is the second highest waterfall in Africa.
Other attractions in the Kalambo Forest Reserve include the Kalambo Gorge downstream from the waterfalls, a beautiful beach around Lake Tanganyika, a hot spring in the village of Kizombwe and a cultural visit to the village of Kalambo.
The Kalambo Nature Forest Reserve is located 200 km from Mbeya and 200 km from Katavi, about eight hours driving.
Nyasa and Matema
130 km south of Mbeya – past high mountains, small villages, banana plantations and tea plantations – is Matema Beach, a beach resort on the shores of the vast, fish-filled Lake Nyasa.
You can rent dugout canoes or kayaks at Matema Beach, explore Pango Cave, or hike in the Livingstone Mountains. The region is known for its signature Kisi pottery which is sold throughout the area.
Lake Nyasa is also known as Lake Malawi. The lake borders Mozambique, Malawi and Tanzania and is about 590 km long and 75 km wide. In 1859 the lake was ‘discovered’ by David Livingstone.
Loleza Peak
The closest mountain to Mbeya is Loleza Mountain, which rises above and behind the town. The Lozela Peak (2656m) and also the Mbeya Peak (2,837m) are part of the volcanic Mbeya mountain range and are located north of Mbeya.
