Tarangire National Park is a national park in Tanzania. It is probably one of the least visited of the northern Tanzanian game parks, and retains a real air of undiscovered Africa, particularly in the south of the park. Just a two hours drive away from Arusha, the park is a nice stop if time does not allow for a visit to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It lies a little distance to the south east of Lake Manyara and covers an area of approximately 2,850 sq km. It is named after the Tarangire River that flows through the park.
