The 'Green Season'

Open your eyes to a different Africa, to the one you thought you know so well.

During the 'rains' from December until April, the trees erupt into leaf and the Ruaha River swells into a bursting torrent. Although the game viewing becomes more difficult due to lush vegetation, there is no major migration of game away from the park as happens in the north of Tanzania, so the game is still greatly in evidence.

This season is the best time for bird watching as the population grows with both the northern and southern migratory species visiting Ruaha.
