The Tarangire River, which never dries up, runs through Tarangire National Park. Since it is the only water source in the park from July to October, when it is dry, hundreds of animals congregate there, making for amazing wildlife and bird watching opportunities. With lush Savannah, wetlands, hills, and magnificent baobabs, the terrain is diverse.
