Kitulo National Park
Tanzania’s Floral Wonderland
Overview
Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park; it is also a world heritage site and the 7th wonder of the world. The Serengeti is famed for its annual great migration; a million wildebeests each trek about a thousand kilometers driven by an ancient rhythm, as it fulfills its instinctive role in the inescapable cycle of life. During the migration, a frenzied mating conquest will take place to ensure the population is replenished before they plunge into crocodile-infested waters as they march on their annual exodus north to the Maasai Mara.
Nestled in the Southern Highlands of Tanzania, Kitulo National Park is often referred to as the “Serengeti of Flowers,” thanks to its spectacular display of wildflowers. As one of the country’s most unique national parks, Kitulo boasts an extraordinary array of flora, including over 350 species of plants, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. The park is a paradise for nature lovers and birdwatchers, offering not just stunning landscapes but also rich biodiversity.
Covering an area of approximately 412 square kilometers, Kitulo National Park is located at an altitude of 2,600 meters above sea level, making it an ideal spot for those seeking an off-the-beaten-path adventure. Beyond its stunning floral displays, the park is also home to a variety of wildlife, including zebras, antelopes, and the elusive leopard. Bird enthusiasts will delight in the numerous bird species that call the park home, including the rare Blue Swallow and the Tanzanian Widowbird.
Kitulo is also a haven for trekkers and adventure seekers, offering scenic hikes across its rolling hills and through lush grasslands. Its pristine beauty and tranquil atmosphere provide a perfect escape into nature, far from the crowds of more popular destinations.
