Apart from chimpanzees viewing in Mahale National Park, there are other things that Greystoke Mahale offers to its guests. These other activities are like Fishing, Kayaks, Nature walk (looking for other primates) and boat ride for the sunset. During the dry season there is an amazing walk that people can do. If you take a boat to Kasiha ranger post which is on the north it’s almost 40 minutes from the shore and if you walk from Greystoke it’s about one hour and forty minutes to the magnificent waterfalls that is between the valleys of Mahale Mountains. Going through the bushes and following Mto Kasiha (River Kasiha) you have to step from rocks to rocks and sometimes you have to use your hands to pull up yourself from the rocks. Also this makes it an amazing walk.
There are swimming pools where a person can swim and enjoy the fresh water that comes from the mountains. You will be surprised to see the marking spots of Cape Clawless Otters. Cape Clawless Otter marks their home range by using their faeces and urine and this is seen full of crushed up crab shells on the rocks near the last waterfall.
