Endoro Forest is a lush, biodiverse haven located in the northern region of Tanzania, near the town of Karatu. Spanning over 55 square kilometers, it is renowned for its rich ecosystem, comprising a mosaic of montane forest, grasslands, and numerous streams. The forest is a sanctuary to a variety of wildlife, including elephants, buffaloes, monkeys, and a plethora of bird species. It serves as a critical habitat for the endangered Eastern Mountain reedbuck and provides a vital corridor for wildlife migration between the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti National Park. Endoro Forest also holds cultural significance as it is home to the indigenous Iraqw people, who have lived in harmony with the forest for generations, practicing sustainable agriculture and utilizing its resources responsibly.
