Four Seasons Lodge

The Strategic Crossroads

The Four Seasons is tactically situated roughly halfway between the Central and Northern regions of the park. After turning west off the main road, a three-mile drive through secluded woodlands reveals the lodge, discreetly built to incorporate the ancient granite boulders of the landscape.

The Tactical Advantage:

• Central & North Access: Situated 20 miles from the Seronera Airstrip and 27 miles from Lobo, it offers a perfect base for exploring the big cat circuits of the Seronera Valley and the rugged, “blackened hills” of the Lobo Valley.
• Banagi Hill: Guests enjoy ethereal views of this iconic landmark and the splendid plains that stretch toward the northern extension.

The Serengeti’s Best Circuits

The Lodge’s central location provides effortless access to the park’s most legendary wildlife hotspots:

• Seronera Valley: Known as the “Big Cat Capital” of Africa, this valley is home to a staggering density of leopard, lion, and cheetah, with reliable year-round game viewing along the Seronera River.
• Lobo Valley: A stunning landscape of ancient hills and granite outcrops. It is famous for its massive resident lion prides and serves as a vital corridor for the Great Migration between August and November.
• Retina Hippo Pool: A must-visit spectacle where the Seronera and Orangi rivers meet, housing hundreds of hippos in a deep, chaotic pool that offers some of the best photography in the park.
• Moru Kopjes: These iconic granite islands rising from the plains are not only visually breathtaking but also serve as the primary sanctuary for the Serengeti’s remaining black rhino population.

Makoma Hill: Located just south of the lodge, these open plains are a favorite haunt for cheetahs and offer vast, unobstructed views of grazing buffalo, giraffe, and zebra.
