About Udzungwa
Udzungwa is part of the Eastern Arc mountains, sometimes called the "Galápagos of Africa" for their many endemic species, including the Iringa red colobus and the Sanje mangabey.
There are no roads inside — this is a walking park. The Sanje waterfall trail is the classic half-day hike, ending at a pool beneath a 170-metre fall.
