A walking safari in Arusha National Park is a must for any safari enthusiast who wishes to get up close and personal with the flora and fauna!

Located an hour's drive from the city of Arusha (2 hours from Moshi), Arusha National Park is often overlooked by safari lovers who fear they will not see many animals. However, this park has a lot to offer and will charm you with its perfect mix of fauna and flora, as well as its varied landscapes.

With an area of 137 km², it is the smallest national park in Tanzania. The park is divided into three zones. To the west, the Meru Crater embraces the Jekukumia River. To the southeast you will get a glimpse of the Ngurdoto Crater, and to the northeast you will see the Momella Lakes which are home to a number of water bird species.

Known as the "little Serengeti", Arusha Park offers you the opportunity to spot a number of animal species such as warthogs, zebras, giraffes, bushbucks and large herds of buffalo. When you head towards the Ngurdoto Crater, you will find yourself in a lush rainforest where you can also see the black and white colobus monkeys. It is quite rare to see elephants and lions in Arusha National Park, but with a little luck you may see a leopard or a spotted hyena.

Due to the low number of predators in the park, walking safaris accompanied by a ranger are permitted. The most common sightings on a walking safari are buffaloes, warthogs, giraffes and a variety of birds. The walk takes visitors to the refreshing Tululusia Falls and back to Momella Gate.  Visitors also have the option of taking a canoe trip on the small Momella Lake where they can spot hippos and crocodiles.
