Lake Manyara National Park is famous for its tree-climbing lions, vast soda lake that attracts flamingos, and diverse ecosystems ranging from groundwater forests to savannahs. The park is a haven for birdwatchers, with over 400 species recorded, and is home to elephants, hippos, giraffes, and buffalos. Visitors can enjoy game drives, birdwatching, and canoeing on the lake (seasonal).
