Udzungwa Mountains National Park

Africa's Galapagos of the Forest

Udzungwa Mountains National Park is one of Africa's most biodiverse forests, often called the "Galapagos of Africa" for its extraordinary number of endemic species. The park protects the ancient Udzungwa mountains — part of the Eastern Arc Mountains biodiversity hotspot — with towering forests, spectacular waterfalls and 6 endemic primate species. The park is a hiker's paradise with trails ranging from easy waterfall walks to multi-day mountain treks.
