Arusha National Park

Mountain rainforests. Rich savannahs. Alpine moorlands. And majestic Mt. Meru. You can soak up all these scenic landscapes in a single day at Arusha National Park, one of Tanzania’s most beautiful and varied parks. Though often overlooked, this small park presents a variety of experiences for curious visitors. Home to the world’s largest population of giraffes, this versatile reserve presents numerous hiking and exploring possibilities.

Ever go on a canoe safari? The seven Momella lakes in the park, all a different shade of algae green or blue, offer opportunities to sail and explore. From your floating perch you can spot flamingoes and further out on the shore, giraffe, zebra, dik-dik and warthog. With its easy vibe, lush green hills and woodlands, the park lends itself to walking safaris. You’ll find great stretches of forest hosting blue and colobus monkeys. And several trails will bring you to Mt. Meru, the second highest summit in Tanzania, the fourth highest in Africa.

Climate

The park’s mild climate offers average daytime temperatures of 21oC/70oF. It can cool off a bit after sunset and early morning game drives tend to be chilly.

Activities

Canoeing Safari – Paddle along the shores of Momella lake, taking in the verdant hills and the park’s wildlife – both aquatic and terrestrial.

Mt. Meru – Tanzania’s second highest mountain after its famous nearby neighbor, Kilimanjaro. The views are worth the climb and you’ll find yourself walking along a dramatic crater rim at the summit.

Bird watching – The birdlife here is full offering over 400 species. The shallow alkaline lakes of the park attract flamingoes throughout the year. Also look for buzzards and eagles.

Tululusia Hill – You can hike to and camp out at this popular lookout point, featuring memorable views of the park as well as Mt. Meru, and beyond that, Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Walking Safari – It’s safe to walk the trails in the park, a wonderful way to get closer to the various wildlife. You’ll likely spot giraffe and be on the lookout for buffalo, warthog and birds like the hornbill and eagle.
