3-Day Aberdare National Park Safari from Nairobi

Wake to birdsong and mist-shrouded valleys for a dawn game drive across the park's dramatic moorlands. Search for Aberdare's special "Big Five" – the elusive forest elephant, black rhino, giant forest hog, and possibly even a melanistic leopard. Return to the lodge for breakfast, then choose between an optional trout fishing excursion at Chania Falls or joining a specialist birdwatching tour to spot over 250 recorded species. The afternoon brings a visit to Karuru Falls, where you can feel the spray from Kenya's tallest waterfall cascading down three levels. After dinner, unwind by the fireplace at the lodge or take a guided night walk to experience the forest's nocturnal sounds and hidden life

After a final morning tracking wildlife along forest streams, enjoy breakfast at The lodge before transferring back to Nairobi. En route, stop at the Aberdare Salient viewpoint for the last photos of these mystical mountains. Arrive in Nairobi by mid-afternoon with drop-off at your initial starting point.
