The Pugu Forest is 12 KM from the airport and 25 KM from the Dar es Salaam city center. Originally named the Mogo Forest, is considered one of the oldest forests in the world. The Pugu Hills Forest Reserve is the location of the source of the Msimbazi River. The forest is protected because of its high bio-diversity levels. Pugu Forest has been visited by many biologists and is one of the top forests for bird conservation in Africa with over 80 recorded species. On the other side of an abandoned railway tunnel are man-made caves that house a large colony of bats. Visitors to Pugu Forest can watch the bats as they fly out of the caves in the evening, which is quite amazing.
