Tucked between Tanzania’s most iconic destinations, Arusha National Park is a stunning mosaic of landscapes—lush forests, rolling savannahs, sparkling lakes, and towering mountains. Though compact in size, this park is rich in diversity and charm, offering a perfect introduction to northern Tanzania’s wild wonders.
At its heart stands Mount Meru, a nearly perfect volcanic cone crowned with a breathtaking crater. To the east lie the vibrant Momella Lakes, shimmering in shades of green and blue, while the misty Ngurdoto Crater—often called “Little Ngorongoro”—offers dramatic views and quiet wildlife encounters.
Conveniently located just a short drive from Arusha city, this park is a must-visit for those seeking adventure, beauty, and serenity, all in one unforgettable stop.
