Where is the wildebeest migration in November?

As the rest of the herds head back across the border, the Serengeti once again becomes the migration hotspot. The wildebeest and zebras are on the move, and most of them can be found in the Lobo and the Seronera Valley areas. In their quest for nutrition-rich grass, they form long columns stretching all the way to the central parts of the Serengeti.

Although it’s the wet season, the Serengeti is still an amazing place to experience. Photographers love to capture the skyscapes as huge, dramatic thunder clouds roll in over the savannah. You can expect cooler weather, but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. The animals become more active during this time of the year, especially big cats.

November :- The Wildebeest Migration is still on the move to the South of Serengeti

 

The wildebeest migration in November is not as active and engaging per se. The whole herds are headed to Serengeti South and Ndutu as fast as possible. They have to catch up with the short green grass that has grown from the short rains in late October and November.

Most herds can be spotted in Central Serengeti, but some leader herds can be spotted in South Serengeti. By December, they should be arriving in South Serengeti and Ndutu.

Where are the wildebeest herds in November?

The Great Wildebeest Migration can be spotted in Central Serengeti easily, as more herds have converge here for a major migration down south.

Is November a good time to see the great migration?

The rains from November to March are quite random and usually don’t last for more than a few hours. There’s a chance of heavier rain during this period but expect less than in the heavy rains of April. If it does rain, it will usually clear in one or two hours, and it’s more than likely that the shower will be localised. November is shoulder season, offering a combination of lower accommodation prices with good wildlife watching.
