NgorongoroConservation Area

The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest intact volcanic caldera and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its 260 square kilometre floor hosts an extraordinary concentration of roughly 25,000 large animals, making it one of Africa's most reliable wildlife viewing destinations.

Beyond the famous crater, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area spans 8,292 square kilometres of highland plains, forests, and lakes — including the Empakaai Crater, Olduvai Gorge, and the shifting sands of the active Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano. It is the only conservation area in Tanzania where Maasai people live alongside wildlife.
