DAY 03… LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK

Today after breakfast we leave in the morning and drive to Lake Manyara National Park. Despite the parks' small size, the parks' vegetation is diverse, ranging from savanna to marshes and Acacia woodland, enabling it to support a remarkable variety of habitat. In additional to a striking setting  and peaceful surroundings, Lake Manyara’s main attractions are its superb birdlife, its tree climbing Lions and its Hippos, which you can observe at a closer range here than at most places (nowadays it’s a game of chance  due to climatic change and human activities around the park). Lake Manyara has also the Hot Spring formed due to the penetration of water from highlands to the Earth Cracks which are caused by the tectonic forces under the Earth. To the east of the park is the alkaline lake Manyara which at certain times of the year hosts tens of thousands of Flamingoes as well as a diversity of other bird’s life. You will leave the park in the evening heading to the campsite.
