The escarpment of the Great Rift Valley rises ahead of us, heralding our arrival at Lake Manyara National Park . The lake is fed by springs, which also water a lush jungle-like fig forest, spread out along the base of the escarpment cliffs and home to leopards and baboons. The shallow alkaline lake attracts large numbers of flamingos and is surrounded by stands of thorny acacia, where lions and giraffes are often observed. Hippos wallow in nearby pools, in the company of many water birds. In fact, with its varied habitats, Lake Manyara is an excellent bird-watching spot and even a casual observer can easily clock up over a hundred species.
