Where Views

& Forests Meet Wildlife

Venture into the Ngorongoro Crater’s lush highland crater rim, where sweeping vistas, ancient rainforests, and abundant wildlife create a captivating landscape. This vantage point offers a unique perspective of the iconic Ngorongoro Crater.

As the largest intact caldera in the world, the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, boasts walls between 400 and 610 metres (1,312 and 2,000 feet) high—taller than the Empire State Building!

Staying on the crater rim is ideal for a safari in Tanzania. Many lodges and camps provide stunning views of the crater floor, offering incredible sunsets and vistas. Being right at the crater means you’ll be among the first on the crater floor each day, ensuring better lighting for photography and fewer crowds.
