Wildlife and Wonders of Ngorongoro
To discover the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is to explore a vast and dynamic landscape where the deep history of humanity, the traditional life of the Maasai people, and a world of wildlife converge. This unique UNESCO World Heritage Site is defined by the remarkable sight of Maasai pastoralists grazing their cattle on the same highland plains as herds of zebra and wildebeest, a testament to a sustainable coexistence. The area is also home to the legendary Oldupai (Olduvai) Gorge, the 'Cradle of Mankind,' where pivotal discoveries of our earliest human ancestors have reshaped our understanding of evolution. While the famous Ngorongoro Crater is a spectacular geological feature within this landscape, the true essence of the Conservation Area lies in this rich tapestry of culture, history, and nature thriving together across its sweeping grasslands and highland forests.
