Why Ngoro Ngoro Crater?
It is called the eighth natural wonder of the world, the Ngoro Ngoro Crater is the largest intact crater in the world. About 2 million years ago the Ngoro Ngoro volcano erupted, and its walls collapsed. The volcano floor sank to create a natural enclosure with its 600m tall walls.
Now, at over 19 kilometers wide, Ngoro Ngoro Crater is filled with great areas of acacia forest, hippo filled swamps and open grasslands. These different habitats contain over 30,000 animals – including elephants, warthogs, flamingoes, magnificent birdlife, the rare black rhinoceros and all the predatory cats. The Maasai can also be seen grazing their cattle alongside the buffalo and wildebeest.
