Tanzania

Lake Manyara National Park

Groundwater forest, an alkaline lake and lions that rest in the branches.

Overview

Small but wonderfully varied: you move from dense forest fed by underground springs, through open woodland, to a shoreline where flamingos gather in the shallows.

The Rift Valley escarpment rises behind the park, making even a half-day drive feel cinematic.

Why visit

  • Famous tree-climbing lions
  • Huge baboon troops and rich birdlife
  • Canopy walkway and night-drive options
  • A natural stop between Tarangire and the crater

Things to do

  • Forest and lakeshore game drives
  • Treetop canopy walkway
  • Night game drive
  • Cycling and village tours nearby
