The migration season
MMWCA notes that wildlife numbers here rise when the wildebeest migration passes through. Timing varies, and sightings are never guaranteed.
Northern Mara journeys
Mara Lemek sits among the northern Mara conservancies, next to Pardamat, so it can be part of a journey across this side of the Mara.
When to go
The conservancy through the year.
A Kenya Wildlife Service official says the wildebeest migration is on the Kenyan side in these months. Timing varies from year to year, and sightings are never guaranteed.
Kenya Wildlife Service counts July to March as high season, with sunny weather and short grass that makes animals easier to see.
The long rains usually fall now. Kenya Wildlife Service notes that some roads may need four-wheel drive.
