Nimali Serengeti Lodge

Located near the beautiful Makoma Hill, the newly refurbished Nimali Serengeti boasts superb views and offers a centrally located base from which to explore the famous game loops of the Seronera River Valley of the Central Serengeti. Directly in front of the property lies a small but idyllic plain referred to as the Makoma Plain. The Makoma Plain is bordered by Makoma Hill to the west and the Seronera River to the east. The beautiful Thatch Kopjes rise above the surrounding area and their commanding presence dominates the center of the plain. Each of these three landmarks (Makoma Hill, Makoma Plain and Thatch Kopjes) is a scenic wonder and each offers tremendous wildlife viewing opportunities.

The wooded Makoma Hill is a good spot to see giraffe and impala, the long grass Makoma Plains is a great habitat for cheetah, buffalo, gazelle and spotted hyena while the Thatch Kopjes are favored by the large Makoma lion pride. The Makoma lion pride consistently uses the Thatch Kopjes as a den site and cubs are commonly seen playing on the granite boulders that make up the kopjes.
