Kitulo National Park- 自然风光
- 5 评论
一、走进基图罗国家公园
位于坦桑尼亚南部高地的基图罗国家公园（Kitulo National Park），地处姆贝亚（Mbeya）与尼永贝（Njombe）两区之间，平均海拔约2,600 米，是热带非洲首个以植物保护为主的国家公园。
公园坐落于火山土壤孕育的高原草原与山林之间，令人印象深刻的是那无际的草甸和多彩野花——因此当地人称这里为 “Bustani ya Mungu”（斯瓦希里语，意为“上帝的花园”），而植物学家则誉其为“花的塞伦盖蒂”。
这里拥有超过 350 种维管植物，包括约 45 种地生兰，许多仅在此一带可见。相较于以大型野生动物闻名的坦桑国家公园，基图罗更聚焦于草原、野花和高地景观，形成一种别样的自然体验。
二、游玩攻略与实用信息
最佳访问时间
若追寻遍地花海，建议将行程定在每年 11 月末至 4 月间，此时草原处于雨季末期/旱季初，野花盛开。若偏好徒步或晴朗天气，5 至 10 月也适合，只是花海规模稍减。
如何到达与住宿建议
从坦桑尼亚大城市出发，可先飞至姆贝亚（Mbeya）/松格韦（Songwe）机场，再驱车前往。
住宿方面，除露营/帐篷营地外，可选择姆贝亚城镇或邻近村庄的旅馆或小屋。建议提前预订并准备保暖衣物，高原夜间气温较低。
主要活动亮点
- 花卉观赏：草甸上成片野花铺展，其中兰花尤为吸睛。
- 鸟类观察：例如 蓝 燕（Blue Swallow）、基彭格里种籽鸟（Kipengere Seedeater）等稀有高原鸟类。
- 徒步/草甸漫步：在高原草原上散步、感受风与光，还能拍摄花海、山景。
- 生态观察：虽无大型“动物大迁徙”景象，但可见山羚、斑马、变色龙等小型动物。
三、生态与保护视角
植物生态亮点
高原的火山土壤、水源丰富，为多种植物提供生长环境。草原、湿地、山坡各类植被错落，形成丰富层次。地生兰是亮点之一，亦显示该地在植物多样性保护上的价值。
野生动物与鸟类
虽然大型哺乳动物少见，该区却是高原鸟类及小型生物的庇护所。迁徙鸟类、山林特有种与草原动物在此交汇。近年来还将斑马重新引入高原，辅助草地生态平衡。
保护意义与游客责任
基图罗国家公园不仅是旅游目的地，更具生态保护意义。作为世界少数以植物保护为主设立的国家公园之一，其高原草地、野花、生态系统均具科研与生态价值。游客应遵守低影响游览原则：不摘花、不扰动野生动物、沿指定路线行走，以维护该地区的生态完整。

Absurdly overpriced. For two of us foreigners to drive in, it's $210 USD for the day!!!!! To camp with our vehicle for one night two days, it's $540 USD!!!! Meanwhile, locals pay just $2 USD each. The Tanzanian government wrongly assumes all foreigners are super rich. Unsurprisingly, few foreigners ever visit this park due to the ridiculous prices.

It's the best place for adventure, full of flowers, cornifers and some wild animals. I advice the one planning to visit the place to have protective gears against cold weather.

Christened as the Serengeti of Flowers, and the National Park with hold the name as well. It is a awesome park for landscape photographers, nature lovers and bird watching enthusiasts a true botanical marvel with a number of astonishing waterfalls and lakes too like Dhambwe Crater Lake. The park offers accomodation as well. From my last visit the public camp site was open and TANAPA Bandas were also fully functioning. The park is easily accessible by road from Mbeya town.
