The park’s offerings are enormous but are best known for its savannah, seasonal swamps and baobab trees along with the large number of elephant herds. During the dry season the Tarangire river is the only source of water in the region, hence attract a considerable number of animals such as bush bucks, hartebeests and giraffes from not only the park but also from neighboring areas like Lake Manyara.
