Mara River Wildebeest Crossing

The Mara River, which flows through the Northern Serengeti before entering Lake Victoria in the West, is without a doubt, the centerpiece of the Kogatende region of the Serengeti. This area explodes with activity during The Great Migration, when thousands upon thousands of wildebeests and zebras battle oppressive currents and Nile crocodiles to reach the opposite side of the Mara River. This event is best observed from late July until early September.
