I went to visit Sanje Falls which wasnt an easy task to accomplish. The price is high, if you are not a resident and for me as for student it was not to pay. For the visiting the waterfall, just for 3,7 km walk in total, they charge 30 to 50 dollars, on the top of it you pay local taxes 20 dollars and also guide 20 dollars. Afterwards they offer you a lift to the Sanje Falls entrance which is about 9 km away from the main entrance, where you have to registrate yourself, for 30 dollars when you can also take a public bus just for less than one dollar. If going there when being a mzungu (white person) be ready to be asked always for more money than locals and to pay more. However, in spite of it being challenging at times, it is still worth it once you are there. The waterfall is wonderful. You have also a nice view from above and can swim next to the waterfall. I loved it absolutely.
Tanzanias tallest waterfall the Sanje Falls is at this park. There are a couple of trails to hike the most popular being the Sanje trail. The park is beautiful and you can really appreciate the nature and the clean air. Theres not much public facilities so must be prepared when going.Note: You must register at the park office before starting any hike and contrary to one of the reviews written here you should not just start your hike without registering first - it is an offence.
Its very cool and adorable..its nice to be there
Udzungwa Mountains National Park is a national park in Tanzania with a size of 1,990 km2 (770 miles2).The habitats contained within the national park include tropical rainforest, mountain forest, miombo woodland, grassland and steppe. There is a vertical height range of 250–2,576 metres (the peak of Lohomero), which incorporates the Udzungwa Mountains part of the Eastern Arc Mountains. There are more than 400 bird species, 2500 plant species (25% of which are endemics) and 6 primate species. It has the second largest biodiversity of a national park in Africa.
This park is absolutely gorgeous with an incredible amount of diverse life, especially endemic plants, birds and primates. I would highly recommend the Udzungwa falls lodge for its commitment to the sustainability of the natural environment and excellent accommodation, food, and service.
It has amazing water falls, wild animals, beautiful big rocks, good trees, and green pastures with reliable rainfall and conducive climate
There is a water fall which made a place to be so nice
It is a good and cool place for us to take a lesson by being interested in creation. Let us do more than just exist in this beautiful world that Jehovah has created; be amazed by it (Udzungwa mountains)!
The Sanje falls walk was fab. The view is extraordinary. The trees were impressive, really quite exceptional. Had a lovely day, not too strenuous but a good hike. Just over priced in my opinion re the park fees.
The most attractive water fall
Udzungwa water fall is a nicest place with unforgettable view.Welcome buddies to Visit Udzungwa Mountains
I was lived since 2000 until now
Very very Interesting mountains!.
Lovely view of the mountain, typically green natural forest and the waters falls with the cultivate landscape at the base of the mountain
Very nice place... I liked the real set up of the place... Its really natural great view of the baboons and nice sound of the birds... They were really friendly to us mostly the manager was so friendly
A great spot for hikers. Its beautiful and prime. The Reservation can definitely do more to include picnic spots and camping facilities.
If you love nature, its a great place to visit. Hike can be a little difficult depending on the routes you take.
Visited 3 times. Best place for hiking and trekking while exploring the nature on east coast in Tanzania. April & May (after Wet season) are best time to visit according with my experience. If your not using tour company talk to staffs, guides for assistance.
Beautiful place to go for short or long hiking trips. I had combined the waterfall trekking with a visit to the Mikumi national park the other day.
Beautiful wildlife, beautiful infrastructure, i.e. roads, etc, friendly locals, a really appealing positive emotional experience!! 👍 I would recommend everyone to go for it, so do I, as I look forward to making a return visit. Thanks
Beautiful mountain range if udzungwa is phenomenal natural beauty in Africa, Tanzania. It is super green with fresh air and mountain climbers will love it.
It is good place for chilling refreshing mind some like that
It is fantastic place to visit, without forget the water falls, including nice weather. Youll enjoy.
Went to the Sanje Falls on our own. Had the coordinates for the path by GPS. Access to the path is hard to find. There is a small parking lot and a few semi-grown ones selling hiking sticks and coconut milk. However, there is no sign of anything at all. There are no signs of paying a parking fee. First, you have to climb a small house settlement on a slope. Only upstairs is a signpost. The path itself is easy to walk, although quite strenuous. On the way up there are small signs of various tree and plant species. On the top you can expect a fantastic view and you can enjoy a bath in one of the numerous water pots.On the way back, we were then approached by a guide that the use of the way costs entrance fee. At the bottom we were greeted by a ranger with a fully loaded weapon and forced to drive in two separate cars to Parkoffice 9 km away. There we had to pay the US $ 90 official costs and penalty in additional $ 45 penalty.The Sanje Falls itself is certainly a worthwhile destination but to pay a total of 45 $ per person admission and afterwards with weapon force to procrastinate is an absolute NO-GO! Especially since you need for this way no guide. This is not the case in any country that wants to open up for tourists.
Its a very attractive place, nice view, mountain climbing, wild animals, huge and amazing waterfalls ever, experienced tour guides etc
Its a good place to visit, there are plenty of natural forests and wild animals, there is also some waterfalls and the people nearby are very kind.
