Lake Masek Tented Lodge – Luxury at the Heart of Ndutu’s Calving Season

Lake Masek Tented Lodge sits in one of the most dramatic wildlife zones in Africa. Located between the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, this lodge puts you directly inside the Ndutu region — the center of the Great Migration calving season. From January to March, thousands of wildebeest give birth around the lodge, attracting lions, cheetahs, and hyenas in every direction.

The tents are spacious, beautifully designed, and blend modern comfort with natural materials. Each tent features a private deck, en-suite bathroom, hot shower, and stunning views over Lake Masek. The lodge uses solar power and eco-friendly systems, giving guests a luxury experience with minimal environmental impact.

You can enjoy indoor and outdoor dining, a cozy lounge area, and a firepit overlooking the lake. Evenings often include distant lion calls, flamingos feeding along the shoreline, and the soft glow of lanterns across the camp.

What makes this lodge special is its location. You are minutes from major calving grounds, marshlands rich with cheetahs, and woodland areas where lions rest during the day. Because Ndutu allows controlled off-road driving, your game drives start from the best possible base — right where the action happens.

Perfect for: Luxury travelers, photographers, and anyone visiting Ndutu during the calving season.
