About

Forest & wetland habitat with viewing platforms, home to rare sitatunga antelopes & birdlife.

One of Kenya's smallest national parks with great scenery, plenty of birdlife, and the rare sitatunga antelope. Note that it's a nature walk through the park — you can't drive through it. Amazing swamp expeditions with viewing towers great for bird watching, and the camping site with nature trails is well maintained.

Serene environment. The walking trails are well laid out. The wildlife and birds not so many. Amazing picnic, camping and choma zone. Bring your meat. For solo meditation it's 100pc.
