First wildebeest river crossing sighted between nr.7 and Makutano!

This herd was spotted crossing the Mara River between crossing point 7 and Makutano! These safari-goers were treated to the first dramatic river crossing of the season! This is just the first of many daunting challenges the wildebeest have to face for the next few months as they brave these waters.

This spectacular video was taken by Andre Photos and Nasikia Camps on the 29th of June 2024.

Wildebeest herd spotted on the move near Nyaruboro Hill!

This herd was sighted near Nyaruboro Hill in central Serengeti. It looks like most of the wildebeest herds are in central Serengeti again and should start to move west. This is a bit late on their usual route as they chased the rains east.

Massive herd crosses the Mara river at no 10

This herd was spotted crossing the Mara river at crossing no 10. Crossing no 10 has gentle slopes but the strong river current did not make this an easy crossing for the wildebeest! A fantastic sighting as river crossings wind down in the northern Serengeti.

Massive herd crosses the Mara river at no 0!

This herd was spotted crossing the Mara river at crossing no 0. An amazing crossing with many deadly rocks to avoid for this herd! Crossing no 0 is the most western of the main crossing points over the Mara river.
