Over 40
species of wildlife inhabit the Aberdare mountain ranges, hiding
in the heavily forested slopes and in the upper moor lands. The

Samburu is
part of a lava plain that includes a diverse landscape of thorn
scrub, red dirt, dried river beds, broken volcanic rock, steep
hills, and rocky outcroppings. This reserve is becoming one of
Kenya's most admired stops after the
Mara. Sights of the peculiarly branched doum palms and thorn
trees give an unusual look to the region.

Samburu National Reserve through morning and afternoon game
drives. You may opt to do some of the activities offered at the
lodges and a visit to Samburu Villages. Dinner and overnight
stay at Samburu Lodge
The light and
vast openness creates a lonesome panoramic beauty and the
permanent water supply acts like a lure for the abundant species
found here. The region is home to the uncommon Grevy’s zebra
with huge fury ears, gerenuk antelope standing on hind legs to
feed, Somali ostriches with distinct blue legs and the shy Oryx.
Elephant and crocodile are guaranteed sightings, excellent bird

species of birds found here. The lake itself is a soda lake on
the floor of the rift valley. The sight of the at times millions
of flamingos is quite spectacular. From a distance the lake
appears ringed in pink. The Lake has also earned a reputation as
