Pare Mountains
The Pare Mountains are a mountain range in northeastern Tanzania, north west of the Usambara Mountains. Administratively, the mountains are a part of Kilimanjaro Region. There are two mountain ranges - North and South Pare ranges, which rise to 2,463 m at Shengena Peak. They form part of the Eastern Arc of mountains. The Pare people live in the area.
The Pare Mountains are accessible by 4WD, but there are few roads in the South Pares. Species in the Pare mountains include the endemic South Pare white-eye, mountain buzzard, olive woodpecker, moustached tinkerbird and the African hill babbler.
During its German occupation, the area around Neu-Hornow was used for lumber exports along the Usambara Railway.
