One of the planet’s unique terrestrial formations, the Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact volcanic caldera on Earth, stretching some twenty kilometres in diameter. Due to the steep slopes of its perimeter, the crater has effectively formed its own distinct ecosystem and is home to hundreds of different species including large mammals such as elephant, hippo, black rhino, wildebeest and lion. The crater’s existence as a natural enclosure means it boasts one of the densest populations of large mammals and lions across Africa.
