About Tarangire National Park
Land of giants
Northern Tanzania, south-west of Arusha
In the dry season the permanent Tarangire River draws huge herds of elephant and plains game, making it one of the best places in Tanzania to watch elephants at close quarters.
Dotted with ancient baobabs and termite mounds, Tarangire is quieter than the Serengeti and made for unhurried discovery, with over 500 bird species recorded.
