From November to December, the animals move from the northern woodlands and hills to the southern grassy plains. During the longer rainy season from April to June, they return north. In addition to the migrating herds, you may have the opportunity to observe resident predators like leopards, cheetahs, and lions fulfilling their roles in the ecosystem.

The crater was formed when a massive volcano erupted and collapsed approximately two to three million years ago.
The descent into the Crater is an adventure in itself. Once on the Crater floor, you will find yourself amidst large populations of wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, and over 500 species of birds.
