🗣️There’s so much to admire about the wildebeest their massive herds, their endless journeys , but what always captures my attention most is the deep, echoing sound they make across the plains. We’re now heading toward the calving season in the Ndutu Conservation Area, where thousands of new lives will soon take their first steps. Nature’s rhythm never fails to amaze.

🌍 The Great Wildebeest Migration — Nature’s Grandest Spectacle
Captured here is a breathtaking scene from the Serengeti plains — thousands of wildebeests gathering under the vast African sky. Known for their iconic curved horns, robust builds, and remarkable endurance, wildebeests (also called gnus) are among nature’s greatest travelers. Their synchronized movement across the Serengeti and Maasai Mara ecosystems forms one of the most extraordinary wildlife events on Earth — The Great Migration.
Each year, over 1.5 million wildebeests, joined by zebras and gazelles, embark on a circular journey in search of greener pastures and fresh water. This migration not only sustains the cycle of life by nourishing predators and enriching the soil but also symbolizes the raw beauty and balance of the wild.
Witnessing this phenomenon is a once-in-a-lifetime experience — the thundering hooves, the crossing struggles, and the vast savannah horizon. The Serengeti is calling, and this spectacle awaits your eyes.

When is the best time to visit the Serengeti National Park?
Truth is — there’s no bad time to witness its magic. The Serengeti thrives year-round, bursting with wildlife, drama, and breathtaking beauty.
From November to mid-August, vast herds of wildebeest roam the golden plains in their legendary Great Migration — a circle of life unlike anywhere else on Earth.
By mid-August to September, they face the thrilling Mara River crossings, battling currents (and crocodiles ) as they journey toward Kenya’s Maasai Mara.
Come December to March, the Ndutu plains turn into a nursery of new life — it’s calving season, where over 400,000 calves take their first steps.
Even during the rainy months (April–May), the park transforms into a lush, crowd-free paradise with reduced lodge rates and stunning green landscapes.
So whether you chase the Great Migration or prefer serene game drives in the quieter months, the Serengeti always has something spectacular to offer.
Ask our experts to help you choose the perfect time — because in the Serengeti, every season tells a story, Travel with us: info@gettogetheradventures.com

A family of brave zebras lead the heard of wildebeest across the Emboo river.
We left our camp around 6am and waited at the riverbank until the animals decided to cross. Finally, after we baked in the heat of the Maasai Mara all day, the animals decided to cross at 5:30pm. Once one animal goes, they all follow. In this case the zebras were first, and about 5000 wildebeest followed.
‘I wanted to depict the darker reality of the well-known wildebeest migration,’ says Simon. Returning after a stampede at first light he saw this pack of spotted hyenas gorging on the lifeless trampled bodies of those that didn’t survive. As one hyena momentarily broke from the feast, it gazed across in Simon’s direction.
In the surge to cross the Mara River the blue wildebeest struggle to climb the deep gullies they carve – many slip and perish under the hooves of those behind them. Spotted hyenas, with jaws powerful enough to crunch bones, will devour everything except the horns of their prey.
In a new guest blog series, #WPY52 Mammals winner Simon Stafford reveals what it was like to witness and photograph this natural phenomenon.

The migrating wildebeests of the Serengeti landscape give birth to calves anywhere from January end to March beginning in south Serengeti. It’s called the calving season and one can see thousands of wildebeest calves in the Ndutu conservancy.
We saw this wildebeest one morning struggling to deliver her calf. The mother kept trying to push the baby out but just couldn’t manage to. We saw her trying till late afternoon but it seemed the calf was dead and she couldn’t deliver. It was quite heartbreaking to see her sit down frequently out of exhaustion and continue trying to push. You can zoom in and see the legs of the calf which is how it was for almost 6 hours. We didn’t see her again that evening. Apparently she would risk losing her life if she couldn’t deliver the dead calf. I wonder what happened to her and if she survived at all. I hoped she did.

Floating above thousands of migrating wildebeest 🐃✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
— Today I have a favor to ask… Please (if you haven’t already) I urge you to read “A Bigger Picture” by vanessanakate1 🌍 It’s one of the most important books I’ve read + a call to action that is so desperately needed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Change begins with listening and learning, and thus we must never stop 🤍
Every year, around 1.5 million wildebeest, 350,000 gazelles, 200,000 zebra, eland and other ungulates participate in what has been called the greatest show on earth – The Great Migration – in search of grazing and water. This typically occurs at the end of the dry season, wherein these animals head towards the western woodlands. .
When you encounter about 1.5 million animals across 4 species, moving in the search of greener pastures and fighting their way through hurdles big and small - hunting predators, absence of water, weak offsprings, and much more, you really start putting things into perspective. It is times like these when we realise the magnitude of the various natural phenomena that world has to offer! .

The Mara River crossing is one of the highlights of The Great Wildebeest Migration, as it passes through Kenya`s Masai Mara between July and October each year. It`s a tough journey and, between water currents and crocodiles, not everyone makes it across alive... 🐊⠀

We searched along the Mara river with no luck so pushed on to the Tanzania border and away from the river. Eventually we found the wildebeest far away from the river. A spectacular sighting of thousands of wildebeest. Maybe next time for a river crossing. #wildebeest #wildebeestmigration #gamedrive #safariphotography #itssokenya #kenya #maasaimara #wildestafrica #onlyafrica #africanamazing #bbcearth #natgeowild #wildlifephotographer
Masai Mara is the most noted location of the wildebeest migration due to its famed Mara River crossings, and this has led to some misunderstandings about the migration itself. The migration is an ongoing movement of animals that takes place throughout the year. The migration occurs within an area that is known as the “Serengeti ecosystem.” The 40,000-square mile area is defined by Masai Mara National Reserve in the north and, in the south, Ndutu, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Maswa Game Reserve in Tanzania. #masaimara #wildlifeindia #naturephotography #wildbeests #rivercrossing #masaimaramigration #kenyawildlife
