The Wilderness Collection, a proudly Tanzanian-owned and managed portfolio, has successfully launched its second luxury lodge, Warangi Ridge, right in the heart of Serengeti National Park, offering front row seats to the legendary wildebeest migration.
Warangi Ridge has been beautifully integrated into a stunning granite cliff, perfectly positioned for maximum enjoyment of the views over the savanna grasslands and kopjes below. Located in a restricted “rangers only” TANAPA Research Area of the park, with no neighbours within a 12 km radius, guests can enjoy this very exclusive wilderness away from the crowds, where predator sightings including cheetahs, leopards and lions, are prolific all year round.
Central guest facilities include an elegant library, lounge bar and restaurant as well as yoga deck, open air gym and spa, all tucked away between the acacia trees, with a waterfall and infinity pool claiming pride of place.
The all-inclusive lodge comprises fifteen thoughtfully designed, fully insulated tented suites. Designed by South Africa’s acclaimed interiors expert Les Harbottle, the tents pay homage to the silhouette of the endangered pangolin, four of which were spotted in the area. Each tent has its own deck with plunge pool and outdoor shower overlooking the sweeping vistas. An interlinked two-bedroom suite is available for families.
A variety of activities are on offer including day and night game drives in open sided vehicles, river walks along the Orangi River, specialized bird walks and 2-to-3-hour guided eco-nature walks. There are also child-friendly activities and treats to engage young guests aged 5-15.
Conveniently located just 41km from the Seronera airstrip, Warangi Ridge Lodge is poised to be the hottest new property in one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife destinations!
