Last Update: 30 January 2024

Located 45 minutes from the great Mara River and Lamai triangle where the great wonder of the wildebeest migration.

Lodge of The Month [August] | Lemala Mara Tented Camp

Here, in this immense remote wilderness, almost double the size of the Masai Mara, guests can enjoy fabulous landscapes and terrific game viewing with practically no crowds. Resident wildlife numbers are exceptionally high, with prides of lion up to 30 strong, but nothing compared to when the migration starts arriving from June onwards. The area then turns into a wildlife paradise par excellence until November when the migration heads back south leaving behind a healthy population of resident predators and grazers. The migration and resident game affirm this area’s reputation as one of the finest in Africa.

Lodge of The Month [August] | Lemala Mara Tented Camp

Two of the largest crossing points on the river are nearby and occasionally guests may observe the exciting crossings from the comfort of the camp. The spectacular Lamai triangle, Wogakuria kopjes, and Kogatende airstrip are all very easily accessible.
