Fort Ikoma Airstrip: The Western Hub
Fort Ikoma Airstrip is located just outside the official park boundary, serving the western sector and the Grumeti-Ikorongo buffer zones. It is a historical and practical link for travelers visiting the western corridor lodges and those staying in the community-run projects surrounding Fort Ikoma.
The airstrip is conveniently located for access to the Grumeti River and the western migration routes. It is an area where resident wildlife like giraffes, gazelles, and elephants are frequently seen in the acacia thickets. Landing here provides a unique perspective on the intersection of community life and wilderness conservation.
