Mikumi to Udzungwa Mountains National Park - Tanzania

Today we take a short drive to the Udzungwa Mountains National Park. After settling in at our lodge bordering on the national park we take a hike up to the Sanje Waterfalls. This beautiful waterfall has three sections, falling 30m, 70m, and 170 meters. We walk through dense forests as much of the park features tropical and mountain forests along with some woodlands, grasslands, and steppe habitats. Udzungwa hosts over 400 bird species so keep your eyes open twitchers. We may also see primates including baboons, vervet monkeys, and rare species such as the endemic Iringa red colobus and Sanje Crested Mangabey. Then there are endemic amphibians, reptiles, and butterflies that we may spot too. There are also about 2500 plant species in the 1990 km² (770 mi²) Udzungwa Mountains National Park with a quarter of these being endemic species.
