It is renowned for its rich wildlife, stunning landscapes, and as an important archaeological site.

About Ngorongoro National Park
Named after the Ngorongoro Crater, this park is a showcase of Tanzania’s breathtaking landscapes and incredible biodiversity. The Crater itself, formed millions of years ago by a massive volcanic eruption, is home to over 25,000 large animals. From its diverse habitats of grasslands, forests, and wetlands to its Maasai cultural heritage, Ngorongoro offers a unique blend of nature and history. Visitors can expect to see not only abundant wildlife but also interact with Maasai communities who have lived in harmony with nature for centuries.
