Tarangire National Park is made up of a network of grasslands and floodplains. With its wildlife-rich river, the pretty landscape is different to the rest of northern Tanzania. Yet it’s one of the least frequently visited parks. It’s probably because it’s overshadowed by its more famous cousins: the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Something we think is a real shame.
There are massive numbers of elephants and baobabs, not to mention a huge variety of bird species. In fact, Tarangire has the second-highest concentration of wildlife of any Tanzanian national park. It’s well worth a visit.
