About Mara Triangle

The Mara Triangle is the western section of the Masai Mara, managed separately by the Mara Conservancy with notably better road maintenance and vehicle management than the eastern side. Bounded by the Mara River to the east, the Oloololo Escarpment to the west, and the Tanzania border to the south, the Triangle offers some of the best game viewing in the entire Mara ecosystem.

The escarpment provides a dramatic backdrop and excellent vantage points for spotting game on the plains below. Several prime river crossing points along the Mara River make this the best area for witnessing the migration's dramatic crossings from July to October.
