Ngorongoro Conservation Area is the name given to the 8,300 square kilometre piece of land that surrounds the famous Crater and the High-lands of the same name. The Crater was once the headquarters of Serengeti National Park of which it was an integral part, but in 1956, after in-tense pressure and lobbying from the local Masai community who were dispossessed of the lands when the National Park was set up, Ngorongoro was designated a Conservation Area.

Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater

Stop At: Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Arusha Region
Early this morning we descend the crater walls to spend the day game viewing with a picnic lunch. After lunch, we depart for Arusha Arriving mid to late afternoon. The 210 square km Crater is now one of the principal attractions on the Northern Tanzanian Safari Circuit and the reputation of the Crater Highlands is slowly developing as a premier trekking destination. The Crater is all that it is made out to be, the hyperbole about Gardens Of Eden, Eighth Wonder Of The World etc all justified by its perennial animal population. This cross-section of wildlife is about as convenient as you will find, dispersed amongst an amazing array of ecosystems within the Natural Amphitheater created by 600-metre-high cliffs around it. It is home to one of the few remaining populations of black rhino in Tanzania and just about every other East African mammal, with the exception of giraffe (walls are too steep) and impala, all unafraid and used to the constant retinue of vehicles.
