4 Days Aberdare Walking safari in Kenya
The Aberdares are an isolated volcanic range that forms the eastern wall of the rift valley. This beautifully scenic region is much cooler than the savannahs and offers a completely different perspective on the country. Tree hotels are designed for guests to observe wildlife coming to waterholes (or salt licks) in pristine forest habitat. Wildlife viewing from this elevated position is a remarkably rewarding way to see animals that are otherwise difficult to spot in the dense vegetation. Walking is always cool with plenty of clear mountain streams. Our walk starts below the bamboo forest, climbing up onto the moorlands.
Please Note:
The price change of the Hotel/Lodge, the rise of entry fee, additional new government tax, increase in tax rate, fuel cost or anything which is beyond of our control may affect our price and therefore the price might change without any prior notice.
