One of the Seven New Wonders of the World
June to October. You won’t fail to be awestruck by the sight of hundreds of animals gathering on the plains or crowding to cross either the Grumeti or Mara River, braving the crocodiles who lie in wait.
December to March. An estimated 500,000 calves are born which draws a staggering number of predators who pray on the vulnerable young. It is the highest concentration of predator activity in the world.
From August to October the herds can be found between Tanzania & Kenya. For the rest of the year the excitement takes place in Tanzania only. Tanzania is our first choice for Migration viewing.
Due to varying weather conditions and other such factors, the Great Migration can differ in its location at any time of the year. A general prediction for the migratory pattern can be summarised as follows.
The herds of the wildebeest are found in the Southern Serengeti on the green and nutritious short-grass plains, ready for calving season.
The herds start moving North to the Moru Kopjes and Seronera.
The herds collect in the Western Corridor and begin crossing the Grumeti River.
The herds continue up into the far Northern Serengeti. This is when the famous Mara River crossings start regularly happening.
The herds graze in the far North of the Serengeti and across in the Mara.
The herds start heading South via the Eastern extremities of the Serengeti National Park.
The herds head further South in search of fresh grass and the cycle restarts.
