Arusha National Park, a small but stunningly beautiful park in northern Tanzania, offers a unique and accessible safari experience. Dominated by the majestic Mount Meru, the park boasts diverse landscapes ranging from lush montane forests to open grasslands and alkaline lakes. While it may not have the vast herds of the Serengeti, Arusha offers exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities in a compact and picturesque setting.
Arusha National Park is home to a variety of wildlife, including black and white colobus monkeys (often seen in large numbers), giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, hippos, and a variety of antelope species. While lions and leopards are present, they are less frequently sighted than in other parks. The park is also a birdwatcher's paradise, with over 400 recorded species. Its diverse habitats, from the slopes of Mount Meru to the Momella Lakes, contribute to this rich biodiversity.
