Why Tarangire
What Makes Tarangire Special
Elephant Capital
Tarangire has over 3,000 elephants and the highest dry-season concentration of any East African park. Herds of 200–400 at the Tarangire River are common from June to October.
Ancient Baobabs
Some of the baobab trees in Tarangire are over 1,000 years old. These surreal silhouettes define the park's character and make photography here unlike anywhere else in Africa.
Tree-Climbing Lions
The lions of Tarangire are famous for climbing sausage trees and resting in the branches — a behaviour rarely seen elsewhere. Combined with leopards and cheetahs, predator density is exceptional.
