Really, the most beautiful
in the world !!
The
Serengeti National Park, the greatest of Africa's great wildlife
parks, includes a vast treeless plain (the short grass plains), on its
eastern stretches, a transition zone with more vegetation and some trees
(the long grass plains) in its centre and rolling savanna woodland to
the north, west and south. The park is home to 1.5 million wildebeest,
600,000 zebra, and thousands of other animals, including gazelle, hartebeest,
elands, ostrich and of course the lions, leopards, cheetah, hyenas,
jackals and crocodiles that feed on them. The annual migration of wildebeest
and zebra provides a magnificent natural spectacle, which Rhona and
I were lucky enough to see. As we sped across the plains we encountered
an ocean of wildebeest and zebra flowing slowly westward, stretching
from horizon to horizon, a sight that would become the background to
our expeditions over the coming days.
The
protected Ngorongoro region: 180 km west of Arusha. 8 288 km˛. The
crater, the heart of the area, is a fantastic place and is very rare!
One of the wonders of nature. All large mammals can be found here.
The park
is located between the Serengeti and Lake Manyara (see
map). It is home to the famous volcanic Ngorongoro crater which
is the largest unbroken caldera in the world. The crater (610 metres
deep and 260 km squared) is a microcosm of East African scenery and
game and is usually visited on the way back from the Serengeti to Arusha.
Scenic grandeur and stunning views are the hallmark of this wonder of
the world. All the lodges are built high on the crater rim and afford
amazing views over and into the crater - the perfect setting for a well
deserved sundowner.
There
are 25,000 larger animals within the crater itself, mostly Zebra and
wildebeest. However, this is undoubtedly the best place to see black
rhino in Tanzania as well as prides of lion that include the magnificent
black-maned males. There are lots of colourful flamingoes and a variety
of other water birds around the soda lake on the crater floor. More
than a 100 species of bird not found in the Serengeti have been found
in the crater. Other game: leopard, cheetah, hyena, elephants, warthog,
impala, buffalo, hartebeest, eland and lots of other members of the
antelope family and smaller mammals of sorts.
