The varied ecosystem consists of groundwater forests, acacia woodland, and open grassland along the lake shore and sustains a wealth of wildlife, including pink flamingoes, baboons, elephants, Giraffes, and buffalo.

After breakfast at the lodge, we will drive to the Ndutu area, which is in the Ngorongoro conservation area, which is part of the southern Serengeti ecosystem. Lake Ndutu, like most other rift lakes, is alkaline; however, the water is still drinkable and consumed by a wide array of local wildlife.
We will spend the afternoon with a game drive in the Ndutu area. The majority of the wildebeest migration can normally be found on the short-grass plains of Ndutu from December to April. And the woodland acacia forest area is usually heavily populated with Giraffes, elephants, tree-climbing lions, and other resident animals.

DAY 4
Serengeti National Park (Ndutu Area)

You will witness herds of wildebeest and zebras, especially during a short time frame from around February to March, where the majority of the wildebeest calve.
The short grass plains of the Ndutu area provide little cover, and the young make an easy prey for a variety of predators. Wildebeest calves can run minutes after they are born, and within 3 days, they are normally strong enough to keep up with the herds. Late afternoon proceeds to the camp for sundowners and to enjoy the views over the lake Ndutu while recounting tales of the day’s adventure.
