Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Overview

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is an area with a range of unique ecosystems that stretches beyond the Ngorongoro Crater. The area is roughly 8,300 sq. km and contains a concentration of wildlife and varying habitats of grass plains, marshlands, and lush forest landscapes. The Ngorongoro Conservation area is protected land and was deemed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. The area consists of the crater highlands, comprised of elevated and collapsed volcanos and their remains.

The Ngorongoro Crater itself is of immense size and measures roughly 20km wide, making it one of the largest calderas in the world. The crater was formed roughly two to three million years ago as a result of an erupted volcano that had collapsed inward.

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is home to the Olduvai Gorge, the location where the remains of the earliest human life were discovered, making it one of the most significant locations in terms of evolution and its encompassing theories. The Ngorongoro Crater is home to roughly 30,000 animals, making it a prime game viewing destination with its large populations of lion, hyena, leopard, wildebeest, buffalo, black rhino, and more.
