The park is famously home to the Great Migration, a spectacular phenomenon where over a million wildebeest and 200,000 zebras traverse its vast plains. This ancient journey follows the seasonal rains, with the herds moving south to the lush southern plains in October and November and back north through the western corridor during April, May, and June.
