The Great Wildebeest Migration
Each year, over a million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move in a circular migration between Tanzania’s Serengeti and Kenya’s Maasai Mara, chasing fresh grazing pastures. This natural phenomenon, driven by the rains, is one of the world’s most captivating wildlife event
Key Parks in the Migration:
- Ngorongoro Conservation Area: Herds gather here during calving season (December–March), thanks to the nutrient-rich grasses.
- Serengeti National Park: The migration peaks in central and northern Serengeti, including dramatic river crossings.
- Maasai Mara Game Reserve: From August to October, herds cross the crocodile-filled Mara River before returning to Serengeti.
Best Time to Visit Serengeti
The Great Migration can be experienced throughout the year, with each season offering unique moments:
- December–March: Calving season in the southern Serengeti, ideal for seeing newborns and predators.
- April–May: Herds move north, and central Serengeti is excellent for wildlife viewing.
- June–July: Mating season and smaller Grumeti River crossings in the western Serengeti.
- August–October: Iconic Mara River crossings in northern Serengeti and Maasai Mara.
- November: Herds begin their journey south as the rains return to the southern plains.
Month-by-Month Highlights of the Migration
- December–March: Calving season in the southern Serengeti and Ndutu area, with excellent predator-prey interactions.
