- Tarangire River
- Tarangire National Park is centered around Tarangire River, which is said to attract large numbers of animals in the dry season, when it is the only nearby water. There are numerous elephants in the park. Some are seen here. The river was unusually dry when we visited, and the park was parched. Our driver said it is his favorite park during the wet season, because of its lush vegetation and large numbers of animals.
