Tarangire National Park

Welcome To Tarangire National Park

Tarangire National Park, with its rolling savannah and iconic baobab trees, is a hidden treasure within the Northern Circuit. Named after the Tarangire River that winds through its scenic landscapes, the park serves as a vital water source for wildebeests, zebras, giraffes, and Thomson’s gazelles.

One of the park’s main attractions is the large herds of elephants, along with the chance to spot elusive leopards and cheetahs. During the late dry season, Tarangire boasts one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Tanzania, offering a more tranquil experience compared to the busy Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Here, you can enjoy the serenity of the park without competing for views with numerous other visitors.

Bird watchers can delight in observing up to 500 species, while those interested in rare wildlife might spot wild dogs, long-necked gerenuks, and lesser kudus. The park is also home to the graceful oryx, providing a rich tapestry of animal life. Exciting game drives and walking safaris offer close-up encounters with this diverse wildlife.
