Ruaha Map Tanzania
Ruaha National Park is a hidden gem of Tanzania, located in the south/western part of the country.
It is the second largest national park in Tanzania, covering an area of 20,226 square kilometers, and is known for its rugged terrain and diverse range of wildlife.

The park is home to a variety of animals, including elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, and zebras. One of the highlights of the park is its large population of African wild dogs, which are critically endangered and rare to see in other parts of Africa.

The park is also a birdwatcher's paradise, with over 570 species recorded.

Ruaha National Park is unique in its topography, with rocky escarpments, rolling hills, and vast plains. Visitors can explore the park on game drives or take part in walking safaris, which offer a more intimate and immersive experience with the wildlife and the African bush.

Ruaha National Park is also home to several unique and rare species, such as the greater kudu, sable antelope, and Roan antelope. The park is also part of the larger Ruaha-Rungwa ecosystem, which is a vital wildlife corridor for many species in the region.

In addition to the wildlife, Ruaha National Park is also a cultural destination, with several local communities living in and around the park. Visitors can experience the local culture and traditions, including traditional dances and crafts, and learn about the conservation efforts being made to protect the park's unique ecosystem.

Overall, Ruaha National Park is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in wildlife, nature, and culture in Tanzania. It offers a unique and unforgettable safari experience and is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who visits.

Best time to visit

The best time to visit Ruaha National Park is during the dry season from June to October.

The weather is pleasant, and the wildlife is easier to spot as they gather around water sources.
However, this is also the busiest time of the year, so visitors should plan and book their accommodation in advance.

The park can be visited year-round, with the rainy season from November to May offering a different experience with lush vegetation and stunning landscapes. Consider that during the wet season, some roads may become impassable, and some areas of the park may be closed for visitors due to flooding.
