This beautiful Park has often been called a "little germ" and rightly so. It is only ½ an hour by tarmac road from Arusha town, the safari center of Northern Tanzania. With mountains, valleys, lakes, and small plains clothed in green, it has a wonderful feeling of peace and solitude. It is dominated by Mount Meru, which at 4,566 m (14,980 ft) is the 5th highest free-standing mountain in Africa.
This second highest mountain in Tanzania offers an unforgettable experience and serves as an acclimatization refuge before climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.
Climate
The Park can be visited throughout the year; however, the best time is between June to September and from December to early March. The short rainy period is from October to November and the heavy rain season is from March to May. The park is located at an altitude between 1,700 and 4566 meters.

The Park is gifted with variety of attractions ranging from wildlife inhabiting the wilderness to craters and mountain peaks. "Little Serengeti", describes the open grassland, a place in the park where various animals in large numbers can easily be seen such as buffaloes, warthogs zebras, waterbucks, giraffes, black and white colubus monkey.
The park holds the second-highest mountain in Tanzania providing a good chance of exploring mountainous habitats inhabited by different animal and plant species which are different from those found in lowlands.
There is a famous lake called Momela lake which provides a home and an important feeding ground for both Lesser and greater flamingos. It is one of the important sites to visit for bird watchers.
Tululusia Hill and waterfall is a viewpoint that provides an excellent view of the lower areas of Arusha National Park, Mount Meru and the majestic Kilimanjaro.
