This breathtaking national park has often been called a “little germ” and rightly so. It is only thirty minutes drive from Arusha town, the safari capital of Northern Tanzania. With mountains, valleys, lakes, and small plains clothed in green, it has a wonderful feeling of peace and serenity. It is dominated by Mount Meru, which at 4,566 m (14,980 ft) is the 5th highest free-standing mountain in Africa.
This second highest mountain in Tanzania offers an unimaginable experience and serves as an acclimatization refuge before climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.The Park is blessed with a variety of attractions ranging from wildlife inhabiting the wilderness to craters and mountain peaks.
Arusha National Park is a paradise for these acrobatic Black and White Colobus monkeys. These species contribute to visitors’ experience during the Park visit because they can easily be encountered. Other animals include Buffalos, Warthogs, and Giraffes
