The Elephant Playground
Tarangire National Park is a majestic ecosystem famous for having the largest concentration of African elephants in Tanzania. The park is dominated by the scenic Tarangire River, which acts as the only permanent water source for thousands of animals during the dry season. Here, you will witness massive family herds of elephants digging in the golden riverbeds, surrounded by iconic, ancient Baobab trees that can live up to a thousand years. It is also a thriving habitat for tree-climbing lions, leopards, puff adders, and over 500 species of colorful birds.
