Serengeti Geography and Climate!

Serengeti National Park is characterized by its expansive grasslands, dotted with acacia trees and rocky outcrops known as kopjes. The park's landscape varies from open plains to dense woodlands, offering habitats for a wide range of wildlife. The climate is typically hot and dry, with distinct wet and dry seasons. The dry season, from June to October, offers clear skies and cooler temperatures, while the wet season, from November to May, brings occasional rain showers and lush greenery.

Best Time to Visit

The Best Time to Visit Serengeti National Park depends on your interests. For witnessing the Great Migration, the dry season from June to October is ideal, as millions of wildebeest and zebras cross the plains in search of fresh grazing grounds. However, for birdwatching and lush landscapes, the wet season from November to May is recommended. The park is less crowded during this time, offering a more tranquil safari experience.
