Within the Tarangire National Park, Lemala Mpingo Ridge is perched on top of the Mpingo Ridge escarpment, offering elevated views over the Tarangire River and vast valley below. The Tarangire is especially well known for its large elephant herds, great birdlife and giant baobab trees. Enjoy a true wilderness experience at Mpingo Ridge by taking part in game drives and game walks with Lemala's highly skilled and experienced guides.
15 spacious tents are all carefully positioned for sensational views. All tents feature an en-suite bathroom and private decks with sunken lounges that convert into day beds. You can take in the star-speckled skies while washing off the dust of the day in your private outdoor bathtub. The lodge itself offers a large lounge and bar serving international dishes and beverages, both indoor and outdoor dining areas, a spa and a swimming pool- all with incredible views of the Tarangire.

INSIDER TIP
"The permanent waters of the Tarangire River is what drives the elephant migration in the dry months from June to October. This is when the Tarangire is at its best with large numbers of wildlife."
