Tarangire National Park day trip

Tarangire National Park day trip

Tarangire National Park is a national park in northern Tanzania. The Tarangire River flows through the park, which constantly carries water, so that many animals migrate from dry regions during the annual dry season from July to October, resulting in the highest density of wildlife in Tanzania after the Ngorongoro Crater. The landscape consists of grasslands, especially on both sides of the river, open tree savannah, dense scrub and woodland, and hills and crags with sparse vegetation. Baobab trees are found with above-average frequency. Among others, zebra, wildebeest, impala, waterbuck, lesser kudu, African buffalo, giraffe, hippo, warthog, lion, cheetah, leopard, hyena and African wild dog live in Tarangire National Park.
