Ngorongoro
A collapsed volcanic caldera holding one of the densest concentrations of wildlife anywhere in Africa.
A collapsed volcanic caldera holding one of the densest concentrations of wildlife anywhere in Africa.
The Ngorongoro Crater is the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera, its floor lying some six hundred metres below a rim that you descend by a single steep road. Within its walls, around twenty-five thousand large animals live in a space of roughly two hundred and sixty square kilometres.
That density is what makes it extraordinary: black rhino, large lion prides, elephant bulls carrying exceptional tusks, buffalo, hippo and flamingo on the soda lake, all within a morning’s drive. The crater is busy, and that is the honest trade-off, but there is nowhere else where so much is concentrated in so small an area. Most itineraries pair it with the Serengeti.
