Great Wildebeest Migration in Tanzania heading towards Kenya

HerdTracker update 03 Oct 2019 by Jennie de Haan

Great Wildebeest Migration in Tanzania heading towards Kenya.

Once the herds arrive in the northern Serengeti, they do not simply head straight for the Masai Mara then head south – but they linger criss-crossing over back and forth through the Masai Mara. It is not a single mass movement, but more a chaotic gathering which can mean river crossings happen daily from July all the way through until late October.

The nearest accommodation to the herds: Lamai Serengeti, Safaris In Kenya
