Tarangire National Park Day Trip

Tarangire National Park derives its name from the Tarangire River that traverses its expanse. This river, often referred to as the ‘river of warthogs,’ stands as the sole water source for wildlife in the area during the dry season. The park showcases varied vegetation, featuring dense areas with elephant grass, acacia woodlands, and thriving groundwater forests. Renowned for its congregating elephant families along the river, Tarangire is also home to giraffes, bushbucks, and hartebeests. Predators like lions and leopards are commonly spotted trailing these animals. What sets Tarangire apart is its exceptional biodiversity, boasting more breeding bird species than any other location on Earth.
