Zion Campsite

Zion Campsite is a budget-friendly camping option in the northern Serengeti, accessible to independent travelers and overland groups seeking affordable access to the Great Migration's river-crossing territory. Designated tent pitches, shared ablution blocks with bucket showers, a communal cooking area, and a small bar provide basic but functional facilities. The campsite's location in the Kogatende area of the northern Serengeti places campers within striking distance of the Mara River crossing points — the most dramatic chapter of the annual wildebeest migration from July through October. Game drives from camp encounter large concentrations of predators, herds of wildebeest and zebra, and massive Nile crocodiles in the river. For self-drive visitors and camping safari operators, Zion Campsite proves that witnessing the Great Migration does not require a luxury tented camp budget.
