Mahale Mountain National Park

Extending from the picturesque shores of Lake Tanganyika, the rugged landscape of Mahale Mountain National Park serves as a sanctuary for some of Africa’s remaining wild chimpanzees, making the pursuit of these charming primates a primary draw of the reserve. The trails leading to the chimpanzees’ habitats are relatively easy to navigate, though being physically fit can enhance the experience of traversing the jungle. Witnessing these endangered creatures in their natural environment is truly a unique opportunity. Additionally, visitors can engage in various activities such as forest walks, birdwatching, boat excursions, snorkeling, fishing, and kayaking.

Breakfast

Tanzania Chimpanzee Trekking.

This 6-days Tanzania Chimpanzee Trekking  takes you to Mahale Mountains National Park which lies on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in western Tanzania. Named after the Mahale Mountains range that is within its borders, the park has several unusual characteristics. First, it is one of only two protected areas for chimpanzees in the country. Another unusual feature of the park is that, it is one of the very few parks in Africa that must be experienced by foot.

Your journey will continue to explore the smallest of Tanzania’s national parks. Gombe Stream National Park is a fragile strip of chimpanzee habitat that straddles the steep slopes and river valleys that hem the northern shores of Lake Tanganyika.

The dry season (May -October) is the best period to visit western Tanzania’s parks. During this period, chimpanzees are likely to be seen in big groups, the sunshine illuminates the fish in the Lake and the beach is an inviting place to relax. However, these parks are accessible all year round. A visit in the rainy season can also be a memorable experience.
