Mikumi National Park is a national park in Tanzania, located in the southern part of the country. It covers an area of approximately 3,230 square kilometers and is adjacent to the larger Selous Game Reserve.


Mikumi National Park is known for its diverse range of wildlife, including elephants, lions, leopards, buffalos, zebras, giraffes, and several antelope species such as impalas and elands. The park is also home to over 400 species of birds, making it a popular destination for birdwatchers.

One of the unique features of Mikumi National Park is its location along the Tanzam Highway, which runs through the park and offers stunning views of wildlife and landscapes. The park is easily accessible from the city of Dar es Salaam, making it a popular destination for day trips and weekend getaways.

The park offers a variety of activities for visitors, including game drives, walking safaris, and birdwatching. The park's open grasslands and plains make it easy to spot wildlife, and the park's varied landscapes, including mountains and forests, provide a diverse range of habitats for different species of wildlife.

The best time to visit Mikumi National Park is during the dry season, from June to October, when the wildlife congregates around the park's water sources.
