Gazelles at the Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National park

The Serengeti National Park spans over 14,750 square kilometers and comprise of flat savanna plains, rocky terrain, and water features like rivers and lakes. The  Park is famous for its annual wildebeest migration, which sees over 1.5 million wildebeest and over 200,000 zebras moving in search of fresh grass and water. The park also boasts an impressive array of wildlife, including lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, giraffes, buffalos, and over 500 species of birds.  Although animals remain the dominant inhabitants of the Serengeti's plains, it has a rich history of human presence spanning millions of years. 


Human ancestors including Australopithecus afarensis also called this region home for almost four million years. The area now houses several indigenous tribes, with the Maasai being one of the most famous due to their distinct culture. Despite exposure to Western culture and education, the Maasai remain steadfast in preserving their traditions, making them emblematic of Tanzanian and Kenyan culture. 

The park history

The area was designated as a protected area in 1940, and the National Park was established in 1951, incorporating the southern Serengeti and the Ngorongoro highlands. The park headquarters were built on the rim of the Ngorongoro crater.
