Description
The Elephant Playground,’ as Tarangire is sometimes called, provides a spectacular destination for a memorable day-trip.
Tarangire National Park is a hidden gem located in northern Tanzania that is often overlooked by visitors. Known as 'The Elephant Playground', it is a spectacular destination for a day-trip. The park is named after the Tarangire River that runs through it, which provides a vital water source for the wildlife in the area.
The park is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including huge herds of elephants, which are one of its distinctive features. In addition to elephants, Tarangire is home to many other species such as big cats, giraffes, baboons, and hippos. The park's grasslands, swamps, and floodplains provide an ideal habitat for these animals.
One of the unique features of Tarangire is the tree-climbing lions that can be found in the park.

Another local speciality is the rock python, which is the largest snake in Africa. These snakes are often seen basking in the sun on rocky outcrops.
During your afternoon game drive, you will have the opportunity to observe and appreciate the various animals and birds that inhabit Tarangire. The park is home to over 500 bird species, making it a birdwatcher's paradise. Some of the species you may see include the yellow-collared lovebird, the Kori bustard, and the bateleur eagle.
In conclusion, Tarangire National Park is a hidden gem that offers a unique and unforgettable safari experience. Whether you are a wildlife enthusiast or a nature lover, a day trip to Tarangire is sure to leave you with lasting memories.
