Tarangire National Park

National Park · 2,850 km² · Jun - Oct dry season · 19 tours

Tarangire National Park is named after the Tarangire River that threads through baobab woodland in northern Tanzania, drawing wildlife from the surrounding Maasai Steppe during the dry season.

Less crowded than its neighbours, Tarangire is perfect as a day trip from Arusha or the first stop on a multi-park safari.
