  Calving on the Ndutu plains

  1. jan. – 15. mar. · normaltDyrelivssæsonBook tidligt

  The herds drop most of their calves on the short-grass plains at Ndutu, in the conservation area's western corner, and the predators concentrate on them. It is the one stretch when the crater is not the reason to be here.

  Six hours on the crater floor

  1. jan. – 31. dec. · normaltLukninger

  The descent fee is charged per vehicle and buys a single six-hour visit, so the whole day gets planned backwards from it. Gates run dawn to dusk and the Seneto descent closes in the middle of the afternoon. Kilde ↗

  The long rains

  20. mar. – 20. maj · normaltMonsunRisiko

  The rim road turns to mud and the descent tracks get awkward. The floor stays green and nearly empty of vehicles, which is the trade you are making.

  Cloud on the crater rim

  1. apr. – 31. aug. · normaltTågesæson

  The rim sits inside cloud for days at a time and the lodges look out at grey while the floor below is often clear. It is a hard thing to explain to somebody who has just arrived for the view.

  Dry season on the floor

  15. jun. – 15. okt. · normaltTætpakket

  The crater holds its game all year, so the dry months mainly add vehicles. Be at the Seneto descent when it opens or accept driving in a convoy for the rest of the morning.

  The short rains

  Afternoon storms and new grass on the rim. Roads stay usable, camps are cheaper than either peak and the light in the crater after a storm is the best of the year.

  Rim lodges charge festive rates and the descent queue at Seneto is at its longest. It overlaps the start of the calving at Ndutu, which is the good reason to be here anyway. Kilde ↗
