Nestled on the mountain slopes of Kilimanjaro lies the beautiful coffee village of Materuni. Produce your own cup of coffee from tree to cup. Receive first hand secrets of what makes a good cup of coffee from the local Chagga people. Only a small hike from the village lay the homonymous 80m high Materuni waterfalls.
This very impressive Waterfall is one of the tallest in the area, spewing crystal clear glacier water 70m into its basin. The beautiful path leading to Materuni Waterfall is located 2500m above sea level
It traverses through valleys and hills covered by tropical rainforest, past coffee, banana and avocado farms. On a clear day great views of Kibo and Moshi town can be seen. The hike to the base of the Waterfall can be demanding and hiking boots are recommended. As this trip is so close to Moshi town it is ideal for those people with limited time but who would still like to see some of the nature and beauty that this region of Tanzania has to offer.

Materuni village feels like a resort with lush green vegetation and small traditionally made villas. The waterfalls are a short hike down from the village. It is high and actually one of the highest and beautiful in Tanzania. The water was warm that day. You can bring your swim suit when you want to be in this place and enjoy it better. After swimming we went to a small farm belonging to a local family. This was another colorful part of the trip. The guide was helpful to ensure we understand the whole process of brewing coffee. The farm owner was at this stage our teacher. We got to see and participate with music and drums. Coffee was made with incredible process from been green beans to been roasted coffee all in traditional local capacity with almost zero technology used.
