Chemka Hot Springs—also known as Kikuletwa Hot Springs—is one of Tanzania’s most beautiful natural oases, located between Moshi and Arusha. Surrounded by lush vegetation and shaded by towering fig trees, this hidden paradise offers crystal-clear turquoise water ideal for swimming, relaxing, and enjoying nature at its finest.
The springs are naturally warm throughout the year, fed by underground geothermal sources. With a depth ranging from shallow edges to deep sections perfect for floating and playful jumps, it’s a great spot for all types of travelers—families, couples, or solo adventurers.
