Lake Manyara National Park Safari in Tanzania
Located 125 km west
of Arusha town, under the wall of the Great Rift Valley, Lake Manyara
National Park is one of the oldest and most popular sanctuaries in East
Africa.
The park has a
large variety of habitats, making it possible to support a wealth of
wildlife in its small area.
The most famous spectacle in the park is the tree-climbing lions, which
are occasionally seen along branches of acacia trees. Other animals found
in the park include buffalo, elephants, leopards, baboons, impala,
giraffes, zebra, wildebeest, ostrich and hippos.
Popularly referred to as
an ornithologist’s paradise, Lake Manyara National Park contains over 400
bird species found in most savanna and river habitats in East Africa.
Common water birds to be seen here are pelicans, spoonbills, Egyptian
geese, hammerkops and the migratory flamingoes, which arrive in hundreds
of thousands creating one of Africa’s great natural sights over the soda
lake.
