Caldera

Ngorongoro is a massive crater in Tanzania on the edge of the Serengeti savannah, formed as a caldera by the collapse of a large volcano approximately 2.5 million years ago. The crater is 610 meters deep, and its rim rises to 2,286 meters above sea level. Lake Magadi, famous for its flamingo population, is located on the crater floor. The Ngorongoro Crater is unique in that over many years, it has developed its own habitat for many animal species, unable to escape. The crater is home to approximately 25,000 animals and has the highest density of predators in all of Africa. The journey from the lake to the crater takes just over an hour. We'll check into the lodge, have lunch, and begin our descent along the picturesque crater walls into the caldera for an unforgettable safari. Ngorongoro is also home to black rhinoceroses, elephants, and, unusually for these latitudes, hippos. Return to the lodge for dinner.
