The Serengeti
The Serengeti is a vast ecosystem in Tanzania renowned for hosting one of the largest and most spectacular annual wildlife migrations on Earth.
Home to the single greatest overland wildlife migration remaining on the planet, this East African plain sees over a million animals move in a continuous, dramatic annual cycle driven by rainfall and grass growth.
The Great Migration
The Serengeti is famous for hosting the Great Migration, an annual movement of over a million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebras following seasonal rainfall patterns across the plains.
Extraordinary Wildlife Density
The ecosystem supports one of the highest concentrations of large mammal predators and prey anywhere on Earth, including significant populations of lions, elephants, and cheetahs.
A Protected National Park
The Serengeti National Park was established in 1951 to protect this extraordinary ecosystem, and was later designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in recognition of its exceptional biodiversity.
A Vital Tourism Economy
The Serengeti has become a cornerstone of Tanzania's tourism economy, drawing safari visitors from around the world eager to witness the annual migration and the park's abundant wildlife.
