A Front-Row Seat to the Great Migration in Northern Serengeti
Nestled in the Kogatende region of the Northern Serengeti, just minutes from the famed Mara River, Gnu Mara River Camp offers a prime location to witness one of nature’s most breathtaking spectacles—the Great Wildebeest Migration. Each year, over 2.5 million wildebeest and zebra thunder across the plains and plunge into the crocodile-infested waters of the Mara River in their quest for fresh grazing in the Maasai Mara.
The camp operates seasonally from June to mid-November, ensuring guests experience the most dramatic river crossings in an intimate, exclusive wilderness setting.
