Tanzania
Mikumi National Park
The most accessible of the southern parks — often called a 'little Serengeti'.
About Mikumi National Park
A little Serengeti
Between Dar es Salaam and Iringa, west of Morogoro
The open Mkata floodplain evokes the Serengeti in miniature, with lion, elephant, buffalo, zebra and giraffe spread across its grasslands beneath the Uluguru Mountains.
Its easy access from Dar es Salaam makes Mikumi a rewarding first step on a journey into the wilds of southern Tanzania.
