The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the
worlds largest intact calderas and is located between the Serengeti and
Lake Manyara. The area of the crater is app 265km2 with sides
up to 600m deep. The crater is at present the most likely places in
Tanzania to see the
endangered Black Rhino as a small population is thriving in the conserved
and protected area. There are approximately 25,000 large
animals within the crater including Elephants, Zebras, Wildebeests,
Warthogs, Hyenas, Giraffes, Lions to name a few. Furthermore over a 100
species of birds can be seen in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. A holiday in Tanzania is incomplete if the crater remains unvisited. It is a truly spectacular site where increasing population of tourists visit each year. The morning mist, the bright afternoon sun, the large caldera and a tour in a 4 wheel drive vehicle - its absolutely breath taking!
