Mkomazi National Park is a conservation area in Tanzania located in the eastern part of the country, between the Tanga and Kilimanjaro regions. It was established in 2008 as Tanzania's 22nd National Park, covering an area of 3,234 square kilometers. The park is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including several endangered species such as African wild dogs, black rhinos, and cheetahs.
Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities such as game drives, bird watching, guided walking safaris, and camping. The park is also an important conservation area for several large mammals such as giraffes, elephants, zebras, and lions. In addition, the park is home to over 450 bird species, making it a popular destination for birdwatchers.
The best time to visit Mkomazi National Park is during the dry season, which runs from June to October. During this time, the park's vegetation is less dense, making it easier to spot wildlife. The park can be accessed by road or by air, with several domestic airlines offering flights to Kilimanjaro International Airport, which is located approximately 120 kilometers away.
