Camping

Sleep in the wild with the wild. A night under the cover of countless stars as you take in the crisp clean air of the morning; is a reality that awaits you in our parks, reserves and recreation sites. The beauty of camping is that you are in charge of almost everything; sleeping time, mealtime and even bath times. It is best for corporate team building activities, families, churches, and chamas as well as a large group of tourists. It’s cheap, affordable and the best way to have fun in the wild. Camping sites are available in Lewa conservancy, Ngare Ndare forest, Mt. Kenya National park and Meru National park.
