    Lake Duluti walk – Arusha Lake duluti is a crater lake that is located in one of the subsidiary vents for mount Meru, in the outskirts of the city of Arusha – Tanzania. It gets its water mainly from rainfall and groundwater that seeps into it, keeping it filled throughout the year. The depth is yet to be confirmed, although estimates put it at 700 metres deep, with a length of 1 km and width of about 600 metres.

    Around the perimeter of the lake is a dense rain forest, which grows right up to the edge of the water. As it is in a crater, it is mostly surrounded by steep walls, which in some places are rocky and up to 30 metres high, with the exception of a small stretch of land in its northern part where the reserve offices and several other establishments are located.

    The lake has a small island in its western part and is also home to several species of reptiles, fish and birds. Some commonly sighted animals include the monitor lizard, snakes (rarely) and more abundantly, birds. The lake currently serves as a water source for communities nearby as well as a tourist hot spot and is currently managed by the Duluti forest reserve, under the ministry of natural resources.
