The Great Migration – A Natural Wonder of the World

What is the Great Migration?

The Great Migration is one of the most spectacular wildlife events on Earth, where over 1.5 million wildebeests, 200,000 zebras, and thousands of gazelles move across the Serengeti-Maasai Mara ecosystem in search of fresh grazing lands. This annual journey covers nearly 3,000 kilometers and is considered the largest land migration in the world.

Best Time to See the Great Migration

  • January – March: Calving season in the Southern Serengeti, where thousands of baby wildebeests are born.
  • April – June: Herds begin migrating north towards the Grumeti River.
  • July – October: The dramatic Mara River crossing, where wildebeests face crocodiles and predators.
  • November – December: Herds move back to the Serengeti as the cycle begins again.
