Spotted Hyena at Lobo Valley

Tucked into the remote northern Serengeti, Lobo Valley is a landscape of rugged granite kopjes rising from open savannah, offering a dramatic backdrop for photographing Spotted Hyena in September. Its scenic, out-of-the-way setting makes it a rewarding stop for those travelling with the Lions of the Serengeti holiday, where the interplay of rock and grassland provides ample opportunity to frame these animals against the terrain. Patience and a keen eye among the kopjes will serve photographers well in capturing this species in such a striking corner of the ecosystem.
