Explore Ngorongoro Crater in Northern Tanzania, once a wide volcano, which is the largest and widest intact caldera in the world. Some books maintain that before it erupted, it would have been more than Mt Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in East Africa. About a million long after having collapsed and eroded, it is a large highland area with the 600 m deep Ngorongoro Crater as its focal point. Nearly three million years old, the ancient caldera hosts one of the most beautiful wildlife havens on earth. Discover Tarangire National Park is a national park in Manyara Region.
The name of the park is delivered from the Tarangire River that crosses the park. The Tarangire River is the premier source of freshwater for wildlife species in the Tarangire Ecosystem in the annual dry season. The Tarangire Ecosystem is known for the long-distance migration of wildebeest and zebras. During the dry season, thousands of wildlife species concentrate in Tarangire National Park from the nearby wet-season dispersal and calving areas.
