Gangilonga Rock

TIME : 2016/2/17 10:53:31

This large rock northeast of town is where Chief Mkwawa meditated and where he learned that the Germans were after him. Its name, gangilonga, means ‘talking stone’ in Hehe. It’s an easy climb to the top, with views over town. Iringa Info or staff at Neema Craft Centre Internet Cafe can provide directions and a guide. Don't climb up on your own, as muggings are frequent.
