The Ndutu plains are renowned as one of the premier spots in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area for spotting predators. They also boast stunning landscapes.

While Ndutu offers excellent game viewing year-round, the ideal time to visit is from December to April. This period marks the arrival of the Great Migration herds from the north and their subsequent departure back northwards.

The area is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including giraffes, impalas, elephants, dik-diks, lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, bat-eared foxes, genets, jackals, and wildcats.
