Lemala Mara is a classic mobile safari camp that moves between north and the Ndutu area in southern Serengeti. It’s aim is to ensure guests enjoy ringside seats to the spectacle of the magnificent wildebeest migration year-round.
Camp is located South of the Mara River in Northern Serengeti between July and October. Close to the Mara River, it is far enough to remain discreet. The location does not interrupt wildlife behaviour as the wildebeest mass along the steep banks during their frantic crossing on their way north to the Maasai Mara. Guests enjoy fabulous landscapes and terrific game viewing. Resident wildlife numbers are high, but nothing compared to the dramatic scenes during the migration. Migration time is when tens of thousands of animals gather to then plunge into the crocodile-infested river – an amazing spectacle!
When the camp moves South, it sets up again in the Ndutu area which is where the Wildebeest herds arrive late December and remain until around March. This is where the wildebeest drop their calves and enjoy a period of relative calm before once again starting their migration cycle and heard North again.
