Ngorongoro Crater, found within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, and described as “The Bowl” in which variety of Wildlife live was also voted among the Seven Wonders of Nature while Mount Kilimanjaro which is Africa’s highest Mountain became the third entry from the country.

Tanzania is one of the unique destinations on the African continent with many tourist attractions but also it is home to 3 of Africa’s Seven Natural Wonders of Africa which include Mount Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. These three are given natural wonders of Tanzania due to its legacy.

country in Africa for 3 of it’s attractions to be declared in the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa. These wonders of nature were determined by insights from experts from around the world with a key focus on conservationists such as members of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

Tanzania is home to a vast diversity of natural wonders, from remarkable natural parks and outstanding mountains, to the tropical sands of Zanzibar and other surrounding islands – plus country is a magical wonderland, one of the best places to see the roaming giants in real life. The natural wonders from Tanzania will have you daydreaming about a trip to Africa for an exciting safari.

If you’re looking to experience the visit and explore the natural wonders of Tanzania. Here they are:

MOUNT KILIMANJARO

The Roof of Africa Rising abruptly from the open plains, capped by snow and frequently fringed by clouds, it is one of Africa’s classic images. At an elevation of 5,895m (19,340 feet), it is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest summit in the world that can be reached by walking, without handover hand climbing. It’s also the highest free-standing mountain in the world.

Kilimanjaro is a dormant volcano, but not an extinct one. Ominous rumbles can sometimes be heard as gases emerge from fume holes in the crater. Although just three degrees south of the Equator, the peaks of the mountain have caps of snow and ice year around.

Kilimanjaro climbers pass from a tropical to an arctic environment in just a few days. They pass through lush rainforest before reaching the heather and open moorland where plants grow. There is an almost that stretches between the two peaks of Kibo and Mawenzi.

The highest point of Kibo, and indeed the whole of Africa, is Uhuru Peak, with spectacular glaciers and stupendous views of Also, on Kibo is the slightly lower peak of Gillman’s point. These are the goals for most climbers. The pinnacle shaped peaks of Mawenzi are for mountaineers only.

With the help of porters and a guide, it is possible to walk all the way to the summit of Kibo without special mountaineering equipment – or experience – and Kilimanjaro can be conquered by to seven days and involves four or huts or tents.

NGORONGORO CRATER

Ngorongoro Crater, found within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, is often described as “the bowl in which a variety of wildlife live”. Set in Northern Tanzania, the crater shares part of the Serengeti plains to the northwest and borders the towns of Arusha, Moshi and Mount Kilimanjaro to the east. The crater has been listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. It is the most popular of the African Natural Wonders in terms of annual visitors, attracting over 500,000 tourists every year.

Ngorongoro Crater is a dynamic and constantly changing ecosystem. The mixture of forest, canyons, grassland plains, lakes and marshes provide habitats for a wide range of bird and animal life, estimated Highlights include the endangered black rhinoceros, an abundance of elephants, lions, wildebeest, hartebeest, warthog, waterbucks, reedbucks, bushbucks, baboons, vervet monkeys, dikdiks, jackals, leopards, ostrich, white storks, ori occasional cheetah.

Visitors come not only for the experiences, but also for a look back at history.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area is home of the world famous archaeological site of Olduvai George. The discoveries of fossil footprints on lava rock as well as ancestral humans remain, which are believed to be 3.8 million years old can be seen at the museum. The earliest sign of mankind in the Ngorongoro is at Laetoli, where hominid footprints are preserved in volcanic rock 3.6 million years ago. Further north on the tourism circuit, Olduvai Gorge has yielded a wealth of hominid and animal remains.

Ngorongoro is believed to have been taller than the Site of Legendary Migration famous Kilimanjaro before it’s inactive volcano collapsed and formed an unbroken caldera crater 610 meters deep and 13 miles years ago. The conservation area sq km) and the crater covers about main geological rifts run through the Ngorongoro area, and nine volcanoes in the Ngorongoro highlands were formed during the past four million years. One of these volcanoes, Oldonyo Lengai and over millennia the ash and dust from each eruption has been carried by the winds to form the fertile soils of the Serengeti Plains.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

A World Heritage Site, the Serengeti is undoubtedly the best-known wildlife sanctuary in the world, unequalled for its value. With more than two million wildebeests, half a million Thomson’s gazelle, and a quarter of a million zebra, it has the greatest concentration of plains game in Africa. The wildebeest and zebra, moreover, form the star cast of a unique, spectacular annual Serengeti migration.

The Serengeti is approximately 27,000 square kilometers and miles) of grassland plains and savanna as well as riverine forest and woodlands. The park lies in Northern Tanzania, bordered to the north by the Tanzanian and Kenyan border, where it is continuous with the Maasai Mara National Reserve. To the southeast of the park is Ngorongoro Conservation Area, to the southwest lies Maswa Game Reserve, the western borders are Ikorongo and Grumeti the northeast lies Loliondo Game Control Area.

For centuries, the vast wilderness of the Serengeti Plains remained virtually uninhabited but about hundred years ago the nomadic Maasai came down from the European to set foot in the area was the German explorer and naturalist Dr. Oscar Baumann, who passed by as an agent of the on his way to Burundi in 1911. came in 1913. They found the wildlife plentiful, especially the lions, but saw no elephants. Seven years later, an American arrived in a Ford motorcar – news of the wonders of the Serengeti had reached the outside world. Because the hunting of lions considered ‘vermin’), it was decided to make a partial Game Reserve in the area in 1921 and a full one in 1929. With the growing awareness of the need for conservation, it was expanded and upgraded to a National Park in 1951.

The park is comprised of four main areas: 1) In the heart of the national park, Seronera is a network of river valleys that and keep the region incredibly rich in wildlife throughout the year; 2) Stretching to the west, almost to Lake Victoria, the Serengeti narrows into what’s known as the Western Corridor. The key feature of this area is the two rivers, the Grumeti and the Mbalageti, which run almost

parallel, each supporting a band of most, evergreen riparian forest; 3)The landscape in the Northern Serengeti is dominated by open woodlands and hills, ranging from Seronera in the South, to the Mara River in the limit with Kenya; 4)The endless, almost treeless Grassland Plains of the south is the most emblematic scenery of the park, as this is where the wildebeest breed.

In the open grass plains during the rainy months from November to May, hundreds of thousands Thompson’s Gazelles, and Burchell’s zebra congregate. Towards the end of May when the grass becomes dry and exhausted, the wildebeest start to mass in huge armies. Eventually, after several dummy runs, the animals begin their trek in a column several miles long to the permanent waters in the north of the park, moved by their own innate biological triggers. After moving westwards, the migration divides by some uncanny instinct, one group turning northeast and the other due north. Once started, little stops the stampede: hundreds often drown at a time in the broad Mara River in the north. This mass movement has a following of carnivores, always ready to dispose of the weaklings.

In conclusion, Tanzania boasts an incredible display of natural power and majesty, and we are so proud to call this country home. Through the changing times, as the tides of economic and social development and governmental change roll, one thing is for certain: Tanzania’s wonders will beauty that man alone cannot create or even fully fathom.
