Tarangire National Park
Tarangire National Park
Overview
Tarangire ranks as the 6th largest national park in Tanzania, covering about 2,600 square kilometers. It’s best known for its large elephant herds and a mini-wildlife migration that happens in the dry season, when roughly 250,000 animals enter the park. The park’s name comes from the Tarangire River, which runs through it.
Getting There
– There’s an airstrip at Kuro in the center of the park with daily scheduled flights to all major safari destinations in Tanzania.
– The drive from Arusha to the Main Gate in the north is on a good road and takes about 1½ hours, which is why many safaris start from there.
Top Activities
– Game viewing by vehicle
– Walking safaris with an armed guide
– Night game drives
