Ngorongoro Crater
World's largest intact caldera (crater) with permanent water and enclosed ecosystem supporting dense wildlife populations.
The Ngorongoro Crater is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa's most impressive geological formations. The crater floor encompasses 26,400 hectares of grassland, acacia forest, and seasonal lakes. Enclosed within the crater walls, wildlife (wildebeest, zebras, buffalo, lions, rhinoceros) concentrate in this self-contained ecosystem. A single day visit from Arusha is common, though staying overnight in the crater offers unrivaled viewing. The Maasai people inhabit the highlands surrounding the crater; their presence adds cultural dimension to the landscape.
