Iringa town walks

A cool formation

Looking down on Kihesa

 

Iringa town is located on a small plateau nestled between two ranges of hills that encase the city. We are fortunate to live at the very edge of one town on the slopes of one of the sides. A short climb up the hills and there are some nice walking paths that are not too steep. There's a whole network of trails that pass through small informal farms and fallow areas. It's has the feel of the classic southern highlands grassland and if it's cloudy you can enjoy a walk at any time of the day. 

This past weekend we explored a side that we'd never visited. It's pretty fun to see the different granite boulder formations or to see some new perspectives and views of Iringa town. It was particularly cloud with some storms in the distance which made for some beautiful vistas. The views looked particularly lush with us in the midst of the rainy season as well. We managed to dodge the rain and even managed a circular loop back to our place!

Very cool cracked rock.
