Ndutu lies in the northern part of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The surrounding landscape is covered in sweeping grasslands which provide the perfect habitat for the migratory route for hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, antelope and zebra. Explore the forest around Lake Ndutu, spotting an array of wildlife; including leopard, lion, cheetah, serval, African wildcat and prolific birdlife. The herds of wildebeest are generally in the southern plains of the Serengeti eco-system at this time.
In Nov & Dec the herds head down south for calving season, which typically takes place around late Jan/ early Feb (depending of course on when nature decides it's time!) At the height of the season, an estimated 8,000 babies are born daily. This brings an abundance of predators and offers good visibility of game in a mix of open plains and
woodland.

Or spend a full day out exploring, with a picnic lunch. It's your safari to enjoy your way.
