Beyond the Crowds. Deep in the Wild.
Where the Serengeti Grows Wild.
Discover Lobo
A Remote Corner of the Serengeti.
Wildlife That Never Leaves.
Wildlife of The Valley
Nestled in the northeastern corner of the Serengeti, Lobo Valley is a breathtaking tapestry of woodlands, open plains, rolling hills, ancient granite kopjes and cave with prehistoric drawings.
This pristine area, rich in natural beauty and tranquility, features rock formations that are estimated to be 2-3 million years old. While the northern Serengeti is quieter and more secluded than the southern plains, it offers a unique wildlife viewing experience. Here, you might embark on a game drive without encountering another vehicle, allowing for an intimate connection with nature.
Wildlife Paradise
Lobo Valley is renowned for its big cats population, large elephant herds and buffalo. From approximately mid June to November, the Great Migration passes through the valley.
With its permanent water sources, Lobo Valley is a haven for year around resident wildlife including lions, leopard, buffalo, zebras, giraffe elephants, cape buffalo, various antelope species including eland, making it an exceptional spot location year around. Cheetahs are present however their numbers are kept in check due to the large population of lions and leopard.
