Nairobi is the only city in the world to boast a 12000 hectare park, teeming with wildlife, right on its doorstep. This unique park is located on the outskirts of Nairobi city and within view of its skyline. It’s rolling plains, riverine woodlands and thick bush lined valleys are home to many large predators including black rhino, lion, leopard & cheetah, as well as buffaloes, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest & eland. Diverse birdlife, manmade dams, the Ivory Burning Site Monument, the Safari Walk and walking trails at the hippo pools are other attractions found in the Park. The unfenced southern boundary means that it provides a welcome dry-season refuge for migratory species and at some point during the year, some 4000 zebra, 1000 wildebeest, and 14 species of antelope call it their home. It is the ideal introduction to wildlife for anyone who has only half a day to spare.
