Nestled in the heart of Tanzania’s northern safari circuit, Tarangire National Park stands as a hidden gem, inviting nature enthusiasts into a landscape adorned with ancient baobab trees and sweeping savannas.
This park, named after the meandering Tarangire River, is renowned for its substantial elephant population, with massive herds gathering along the riverbanks. The park’s diverse ecosystems, from lush swamps to acacia woodlands, provide a habitat for a variety of wildlife, including lions, giraffes, and numerous bird species. Tarangire offers a unique and quieter safari experience compared to its more famous neighbors, providing visitors with a sense of exclusivity as they traverse the scenic terrain.
Particularly breathtaking during the dry season when the wildlife congregates around the river, Tarangire National Park promises an intimate and unforgettable safari adventure for those seeking both tranquility and a rich array of African wildlife.
The best time to visit Tarangire National Park is during the dry season from June to October. These are the best months for wildlife due to migratory patterns, and the short grasses make game viewing even easier. The animals flock towards the Tarangire river for water, allowing for easy sightings.
In order to see the big herds of elephants, we recommend visiting towards the latter period of the dry season (September/October). November can be especially cheap, as it is out of peak season but tends to still be quite dry before the short rains hit. The low season, from late November to May, is great for bird watching as the area is wet, green and luscious.
Tarangire National Park is famous for the thousands of elephants that come down to the park during the dry season in search of water, but there are also plenty of wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, buffalo and hippos.
Lions are often sighted, and you might see leopards and cheetahs patrolling the grasslands, or perched in a tree. Wild dogs have been spotted before, but you have to get lucky to find them.
The park is also a great birding destination, with over 500 species living in Tarangire.
Tarangire has some of the highest elephant populations in the country. During peak migration from July to October, around 5,000 of these gentle giants will migrate to Tarangire – you can sometimes see groups of 300 elephants at once.
It’s not just elephants that migrate across these plains. You’ll also find plenty of other mammals including lions, zebras and antelopes.
The vast grasslands and Baobab trees create a rugged, ‘Out of Africa’ feel that’s quite distinct amongst Tanzania’s national parks.
It is only a short drive from Arusha on tarmac roads, making for a relatively easy-going journey, and perfect for a short safari of one or two days after a Kili hike or other safaris across Tanzania.
