Overview

Ol Doinyo Lengai โ€” Maasai for “Mountain of God” โ€” is the only volcano on Earth that erupts natrocarbonatite lava, and the climb to its rim is a genuine adventure rather than a standard trek: a steep, loose-scree ascent starting at midnight to reach the summit for sunrise, before the equatorial heat sets in. It’s best combined with a night or two at Lake Natron rather than attempted as a rushed day trip.
