Before you leave the park, imaging how the wonderful is this park, a recall back will tell you that is why Hatari Movie was filmed on this location in Tanganyika Country by then, which is now Tanzania country, in site Arusha National Park.

Hatari is a 1962 American film directed by Hawks and starring John Wayne Marion Mitchell Morrison, born Marion Robert Morrison, better known by his stage name John Wayne, was an American film actor, director, and producer.

He epitomized rugged masculinity and has become an enduring American icon. He is famous for his distinctive voice, walks, and height. The title HATARI means “danger” in Swahili, which was mentioned in the film as well. Portraying a group of hunters, the film presents an interesting if the antiquated portrait of Africa still dominated by non-Africans.

The film is extremely popular because of the dramatic wildlife chases and the magnificent backdrop scenery of Mount Meru, a dormant volcano.
