Gombe Stream National Park is one of Tanzania’s most distinctive wildlife destinations, set along the eastern shores of Lake Tanganyika in western Tanzania. The park is internationally known for its wild chimpanzees and for the long-running research associated with Jane Goodall. TANAPA identifies chimp trekking as Gombe’s signature visitor activity.
Unlike Tanzania’s classic savannah parks, Gombe is explored largely on foot through steep forested terrain. Visitors can trek in search of chimpanzees, encounter other primates, enjoy forest birdlife and take in beautiful views across Lake Tanganyika.
