Overview
Tarangire National Park was established in 1970, located in northern Tanzania, in the Manyara region south of Lake Manyara, and is the 6th largest National Park in Tanzania. Known as the land of 1000s of Elephants protected herds in open plains and some stunning gigantic Baobab trees.
The park has acquired its name from the Tarangire River that crosses the park and is the primary source of fresh water for wild animals in the Tarangire Ecosystem during the dry season. This Ecosystem is defined by the long-distance migration of wildebeest and zebras, where during the dry season thousands of animals concentrate in the Park from the surrounding wet-season dispersal and calving areas.
The dry season months of June through November are the best times to visit the Tarangire National Park. Accessible by road from Arusha is 2 hr. 51 min (150.6 km/93.57miles), and by air from Arusha, to Tarangire National Park is 40mins nonstop.
