Ndutu Mobile Camp

The Camps

Location : Big Marsh

Ndutu Ngorongoro Conservation Area — The ext raordinary annual Wildebeests Great Migration of wildebeest and other grazing herbivores across the Serengeti ecosystem is one of the greatest spectacles in the natural world. Over two million herbivores partake in this journey, with about 200 000 zebra and 500 000 Thomson`s gazelle behind the main players... one-and-a-half million wildebeest! Essentially the wildebeest are taking advantage of the strongly seasonal conditions, spending the wet season on the Ndutu plains in the south- east, and the dry season in the woodlands of the north-west. However, the sheer weight of their numbers also plays an important role in shaping the environment to their needs. In November December, January February to March the Serengeti plains and the Ngorongoro Conservation areas in northern Tanzania are just buzzing with life, this is calving season. Most of the wildebeest calves are born in just a three week period, usually the beginning of February.

December – March. Ngorongoro Ndutu How to Get There: Road Transportation By road – 260 km from Arusha to Ndutu | 255 km from Tarangire National Park to Ndutu | 265 Km Isebania to Ndutu | 230 km from Kogatende to Ndutu | 77 Km Seronera to Ndutu

December

This is the short rains season in the Central Serengeti. As soon as the rains begin, the wildebeest herds will rapidly move as far south as possible in their inexorable migration in search of sweet, nourishing grasses and to prepare for the arrival of the next generation.

January

The wildebeest herds wait for the first Serengeti rains, and their movement depends on when the rains arrive in the southern plains. This triggers a swift migration, as with the rains comes the new growth of the nutrient-rich sweet grass that will sustain the pregnant females through calving and lactating. Movement is rapid, and the herds can move from Lobo in the north to Ndutu in the south in just a few days.
