The Migration Continues: Sand River in Action

The Great Migration is still in full motion, with large numbers of wildebeest continuing to cross at the Sand River. Herds are steadily moving between Tanzania and Kenya, filling the riverbanks with activity as they push forward in search of fresh grazing. The crossings here remain one of the first key entry points into the Maasai Mara, and every day more animals are making the journey north. With the season progressing, Sand River continues to play a central role in this incredible movement of wildlife.
