How Does the Serengeti National Park Wildebeest Migration Work?

The Serengeti National Park Wildebeest Migration follows a predictable, yet dynamic, annual pattern. It's a constant cycle of life and survival. The herds move north from the Serengeti in Tanzania towards the Maasai Mara in Kenya. This journey is dictated by rainfall and the availability of nutritious grass. For example, river crossings are often the most dramatic events. These occur when the herds need to cross the Grumeti or Mara rivers. Predators often lie in wait, creating intense moments. Our guides are skilled at finding the best vantage points.
