About the Crater

Formed approximately 2.5 million years ago, the Ngorongoro Crater is a geological marvel. The massive eruption of a volcano collapsed its summit, creating a caldera that is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The crater floor is about 610 meters (2,000 feet) below the rim and covers an area of 260 square kilometers (100 square miles). The variety of habitats within the crater—ranging from open grasslands and woodlands to swamps and lakes—supports over 25,000 large animals.

This rich biodiversity makes Ngorongoro a crucial conservation area, helping to maintain the ecological balance within the region.
