SERENGETI LAKE MAGADI LODGE

Boasting of being home to the big 5, Serengeti National Park is perhaps one of the most prolific places for game-viewing all year round. Although the great migrating herds of wildebeests and zebras are an impressive sight, the endless plains with a huge predator population, varied birdlife and kaleidoscope of natural colors are pretty hard to beat. The alkaline lake located in central Serengeti – ‘Magadi’ translating to ‘soda ash’ in Swahili, serves as a watering hole for birds and animals in this area.
