Hikes & highlands
Ngorongoro Crater Rim Walk
Leave the vehicle behind for a guided walk through the crater highlands.

A LITTLE CLOSER
The experience
Walk at a slower pace through highland surroundings with an armed ranger and guide. The route offers a chance to notice plants, birdlife and, when the weather clears, views across the crater. Choose this as an active complement to time spent on game drives.
