Katav National Park - African Adventure Pinnacle

Serengeti National Park in 2001 had 100,000 visitors, in contrast Katav remote and inaccessible west of Tanzania's National Park had only 83 guests. It is rumored that the guest arrives park gate guards are shocked and bewildered by the rare tourists to this park. Here, this park only other people you will meet other guests and staff at one of the [tent] the Lodge Park. Here you have one million hectares of yourself. I'm sure you've heard and read many times on purpose "off the beaten track" - the park is overused phrase "well off the beaten track" personification. This is the moment, with tourists insatiable appetite for something new, somewhere at the other tourist attractions, is shrinking the world, one wonders how long the park will remain remote and secret. To drive this park is extremely endurance test. By way of derogation from Aruhsa or Dar es Salaam include the day 4:57, breaking the spine strong drive 4 x 4. Or hire a charter flight option is easier, if not equally expensive. I say easier, but it also includes four hours of flying light aircraft with refueling stops along the route. If you dive with the intention of the camp, you must be totally self sufficient. You will turn into the real wilderness. When you think of camping, I cleared a piece of land pitching tents. Here you will be truly one with nature. It is worth the effort if you are into adventure. The park is really great, covering more than one million hectares of land. There are two lakes, Lake Katav the north and Lake Chada and Katuma River in the south. Mixed forests and acacia bush in the park is home to elephant, so many kinds of antelope.

The dry season, all animals in the park congregate around lakes and along the river. Huge crocodiles line the rivers and lakes, hippo share with a solid mass. If you like the hippo, this park is the place to see them en mass. Some pools and Lake Chada Center 3000 Hippo may have at any time. There are also leopard and many of the park lions. Buffalo preferred meal for a lion - the lion is not a drawback to this park. There are more than 400 species of birds, including Angola Pitta, Blackfaced Barbet and Blue Swallows. View attraction is the birds, watch Maribou Stock wading in the mud and feeding Bärbel [cat fish]. Sometimes the mud boils with fish and fish resources, causally soft mud to extract them quick and easy meal. Now is the time to visit this park in front of more open and provide unparalleled beauty of the remote and lost tourism.
