DAY 05: SERENGETI (Central) – EASTERN SERENGETI (East of the Grumeti River and Naabi Hill) – CENTRAL SERENGETI

On the fifth day,After breakfast, we will head to the eastern part of the Serengeti National Park, also known as the EAST OF THE GRUMETI RIVER,the river play a vital role in the Serengeti Migration. We will be doing a driving game on the road from the Seronera region to the Eastern Serengeti region. We arrived on time for lunch at the lodge and after lunch we enjoyed an afternoon drive in the area. Migratory wildebeest involved in the Serengeti Migration are usually found in the eastern Serengeti region in November - December - early January, depending on rainfall. They usually survive in the northeastern Serengeti and migrate further south in December.

Wildebeest parting in the Serengeti Wildebeest Migration usually reside in the northeastern Serengeti and migrate further south in December. Gol Kopjes, located in the eastern plains, is home to the highest densities of cheetahs in Africa during the rainy season. Most of the cheetahs in the Serengeti are migratory, with many following the Thomson's gazelle migrating during the Serengeti Migration to the eastern shortgrass plains during the wet season and then to the central Serengeti (plain/forest border) during the dry season. During the rainy season, the Eastern Plain is the best place to see cheetahs in the Serengeti and in the whole of Africa. During an all-day drive to GOL kopjes, you may encounter several groups of cheetahs. Cheetahs are daily (daytime) predators and if you're lucky you'll see the world's fastest land animal in action.

Besides cheetahs, the eastern plains are home to the largest concentration of hyenas during the green season. Large herds of up to 30 hyenas are regularly spotted from Naabi Hills in the east through Gol Kopjes and Lemuta Hills. Hyenas, the most abundant carnivores in the entire ecosystem, are semi-nomadic and 'migrate' to the eastern plains during the rainy season from their nests in the central Serengeti. Lion populations are also high in the eastern plains during the rainy season. Most of the Serengeti lions are resident but a significant portion are nomadic (about 20%) and they follow the animals that migrate to the plains every rainy season. However, lions are rarely seen east of Lemuta and they are much easier to see inside the Serengeti area, including the Gol Kopjes area. After lunch, you will continue to watch the game at Serengeti towards central Serengeti during the night. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Camp or Lodge. All meals included.
