The Seronera Valley

At the Centre of the park, the Seronera River Valley is one of the richest wildlife habitats in the region, not only providing a valuable water source, but also marking the boundary between the grassy plains and wooded hills in the North, attracting animals and birds belonging to both environments. In addition to the plains animals, the woodlands are favored by buffalo, dik-dik, giraffe, elands, elephants and bushbuck. Waterbuck and reedbuck hang out along the river banks, overlooked by leopards who love to laze away the heat of the day in the shady sausage trees. The river provides a home for hippos and crocodiles, while many of the park’s estimated 500 species of birds can be found in the area.
