Manyara National Park Tour
Overview
Lake
Manyara National Park is relatively small and
the park can be traversed within a short period of time
while viewing a considerable number of wildlife and
bird life.
The
park is famous for Acacia Tortilis tree-climbing lions.
Other animals frequently seen are leopards (also on
trees), zebras, impalas, baboons, monkeys, wildebeests,
giraffes, buffalos and elephants. Hippos can be seen
either basking or submerged in the hippo pools near
the forest.
The
word Manyara comes from the Maa (language of the Masai)
word referring to the Euphorbia Tirucalli tree plant
used to creates hedges for the Masai cattle. The Tirucalli
is preferred over tree branches by the Masai because
of its resilience and long lasting characteristics.
The
total size of Lake Manyara is 330 square kilometers
out of which 230 square kilometers includes lake arena
where water levels are constantly fluctuating. Lake
Manyara's relatively small size is home to a favorable
ecosystem, which includes varied bird, wildlife and
vegetation species.
Lake
Manyara gets supplied with water systems that gush out
from the base of the Great Rift Valley. African Spice
Safaris guests should note that unlike many of its sister
lakes found in the Kenya's Rift Valley, an eastern wall
does not cushion Lake Manyara; the land in this part
of the Great Rift Valley is a soft depression.
