About this activity
Explore Kenya's misty Aberdare Mountains over 4 days, combining stays at two iconic lodges—the exclusive Ark Lodge with its famous wildlife viewing platform and Aberdares Country Club on a private conservancy—to track forest elephants, buffalo, and leopards in their natural habitat.
Experience the Aberdares National Park where you will search for the big herds of Elephants, buffaloes, and Leopards in the forest. Get a combined stay in Aberdares Country Club with its own conservancy plus the famous Ark Lodge. Indulge in the many exciting activities like horseback riding in search of the game or just relax at the viewing deck at The Ark and wait for the animals to come to the watering hole.
The Aberdare National Park is a protected area in the Aberdare Mountain Range in central Kenya located east of the East African Rift Valley. It covers the higher areas and the Aberdare Salient to the east.
