Why Travel to Serengeti National Park? by

Widely rated as the best wildlife safari park in the world, Serengeti is a legendary African destination. The iconic Serengeti National Park is famous for its spectacular Great Migration. This epic migration of around 2 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles, unfolds across its vast plains every year. Serengeti is Tanzania's premier safari destination for good reason. It is also home to the largest concentration of wildlife in Africa covering an impressive 14 763 km² (5,700 mi²) in the northwest of Tanzania all the way to the south-western border with Kenya. The Serengeti National Park boasts some of Africa’s most breathtaking scenery, iconic savannahs dotted with acacia trees, granite kopjes, and crocodile-infested rivers.

The Great Migration in Serengeti Park

The Serengeti's Great Wildebeest Migration is the largest and longest overland migration in the world.  1.5 million wildebeest, 200 000 zebras, and 350 000 gazelles stampede across the African bushveld in search of water and fresh grazing. With such a high concentration of large mammals, the Serengeti also has the largest population of wild lions in Africa. In addition to the prides of hungry lions, the Serengeti National Park is a great place to witness cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, as well as smaller predators like caracal and serval cats. 

David Atteborough's "Greatest show on Earth", covers almost 1000 km annually (some 600 miles), north and then south in a circular migration. Although the timing of this breathtaking year-round migration differs according to the timing of the seasonal rains, the wildebeest generally gather in the south from late December through March before moving north through the western corridor from April to May. The massive herds cross the Mara River around September before starting the movement south again in October or November.

A Closer Look at Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti National Park is one of several national parks that make up the Greater Serengeti Ecosystem. The name Serengeti is derived from the Maa word 'siringet' which means 'land that runs on forever' in the Maasai language. The Serengeti was declared a world heritage site in 1979, and is Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park. The Serengeti National Park has also been proclaimed one of the 7 wonders of the world. The Serengeti consists of a variety of different habitats, including grassland plains, kopjes, riverine forests, swamps, and woodlands, supporting a high variety of wildlife species. 

The Serengeti National Park can be divided into four distinct sections, the Western Corridor, the Northern Lobo area that extends northwards to Kenya's Masai Mara, the Seronera Valley and Seronera River area, and the Southern Serengeti where the mega herds gather to calve in January and February. The world's largest unbroken volcanic caldera, the Ngorongoro Crater and Olduvai Gorge, home to some of the oldest fossils of early humans, are found in this Southern Serengeti area, and were in fact, part of the Serengeti National Park until 1959. 

Serengeti Wildlife

Tanzania's Serengeti National Park offers superb game-viewing all year round when vast herds of buffalo, eland, topi, waterbuck, impala, kongoni, and Grant’s gazelle can be seen grazing in the thousands. The Serengeti is famous not only for its migrating wildebeest and herbivores but also for its high concentration of big cats who are attracted by the abundance of prey. This epic safari park is also home to smaller cats, such as the caracal and serval, as well as jackal, fox, mongoose, and genet. Other species found in the Serengeti area include crocodiles, hedgehogs, shrews, agama lizards, snakes, and dung beetles. Africa’s Big 5 are also abundant in the Serengeti, with giraffes, warthogs, baboons, and African Wild Dogs also inhabiting this flagship wildlife park. The Serengeti National Park hosts around 500 bird species, including the black eagle, secretary bird, Kori bustard, shrikes, ostrich, crowned crane, and marabou storks, as well as endemic species like the gorgeous Fischer's Love bird.
