Mwanza, Tanzania

Why Walk Mwanza

Mwanza is Tanzania's second-largest city, built among massive granite boulders on the southern shore of Lake Victoria. Known as 'Rock City' for the dramatic kopjes (rock outcrops) scattered throughout, the city is the main gateway to the Serengeti's western corridor. The Kamanga Ferry crosses the lake, and Bismarck Rock — a precariously balanced boulder in the harbor — is the city's icon.
