Aberdare National Park Safari 2 Days 1 Night Tour

Aberdare National Park Safari 2 Days 1 Night Tour: This affordable, private Aberdare National Park Safari offers a short and hassle-free way to experience the incredible wildlife of Aberdare National Park (a protected area in the Aberdare Mountain Range in central Kenya).

Aberdare National Park is located in the Central Highlands west of Mount Kenya. The Aberdare Range is a long, narrow massif, stretching north to south for about 70km with its southern end about 80km north of Nairobi. Aberdare National Park is 160 km (99 miles) from Nairobi.

Along the centre of the range are the main peaks: Chebuswa (3,364 m), Satima (4,001 m), and Table Mountain (3,791m) are in the Northern Moorland; Rurimueria (3,860 m) and Maratini (3,698 m) are in the Central Moorland, and Kinangop (3,906 m) and The Elephant (3,590 m) are in the Southern Moorland.

The Park is renowned for its torrential waterfalls plunging from cloud-shrouded heights to spray-filled ravines. They include: The Gura Waterfall, the most precipitous fall in Kenya, which cascades 300m into an impenetrable ravine, the spectacularly lovely Karura Falls; the Chania Falls, the Magura Falls, and Queen’s Cave.

The prolific bird life features 250 recorded species. Mammals of the forest zone include blue and colobus monkey, leopard, lion, elephant, warthog, black rhino, giant forest hog, bushbuck, buffalo, red duiker, and suni. Mammals of the moorlands include serval, eland, several species of duiker and the rare bongo antelope.
