Aberdare National Park
Aberdare National Park is a beautiful highland wilderness featuring dense forests, mist-covered mountains, deep valleys, waterfalls, and open moorlands.
Unlike Kenya's savannah parks, Aberdare offers a cool mountain environment and unique forest wildlife experiences. Elephants, buffaloes, giant forest hogs, and various antelope species inhabit the area, while the park is also associated with unusual wildlife such as melanistic leopards.
Special features: Karuru Falls, Chania Falls, mountain forests, moorland scenery, forest elephants, giant forest hogs, and wildlife viewing from nearby waterhole-facing lodges.
