Arusha National Park
Welcome to Arusha National Park
Tanzania's Scenic Gem!
Discover one of Tanzania's most beautiful and diverse parks. Arusha National Park, though small compared to other parks (covering about 552 square kilometers), is packed with breathtaking scenery — from lush montane forests and rolling grasslands to the striking Momella Lakes and the majestic Mount Meru, Tanzania's second-highest peak.
A Wildlife Wonderland:
Arusha National Park is home to giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, warthogs, and a wide variety of antelopes. You can also spot primates like blue monkeys and colobus monkeys in the forest, and lucky visitors might even see leopards or elephants.
Birdwatcher's Paradise:
With more than 400 bird species, including flamingos on the Momella Lakes and the striking turacos in the forest, the park is a haven for bird lovers.
Close to the Safari Hub:
Located just a short drive from Arusha town — the starting point for most northern circuit safaris — Arusha National Park is perfect for a day trip or the first stop on your safari adventure. Its easy access makes it a great choice for travelers with limited time.
Unique Experiences:
Take a game drive through the park's varied landscapes, enjoy a guided walking safari where you can get close to giraffes, or even climb Mount Meru for a challenging trek with spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
Committed to Conservation:
Arusha National Park plays a vital role in protecting the ecosystem around Mount Meru and is one of the few places in Tanzania where walking safaris are allowed, helping visitors connect with nature in a sustainable way.
