NAIROBI NATIONAL PARK

One of the only parks on earth to be in such close proximity to a city centre

Nairobi National Park

Bordering the capital city of Nairobi, in beautiful Kenya, Nairobi National Park is one of Africa’s smallest parks and one of the only parks on earth to be in such close proximity to a city centre. It boasts a large and varied wildlife population, amid wide open grass plains against a backdrop of city scrapers.

It is home to one of Kenya’s most successful rhinoceros sanctuaries with the world’s highest concentration of black rhinoceros. It’s wetland areas are abundant with birdlife boasting over 400 bird species. Visitors can enjoy the many facilities the park has to offer such as scenic picnic sites, well-positioned campsites and hiking trails. Commonly spotted species include: lion, hyena, warthog, zebra, giraffe, ostrich, gazelle, buffalo, and sometimes if you’re lucky, leopard and cheetah.

Best time to visit Nairobi National Park

The dry seasons in Kenya are January and February and then July to October. This is regarded as the best time to travel and is the main tourist season as the weather is so favourable. If you are not opposed to the rain, travelling between March and June, and October to December is ideal to avoid the crowds.

Wildlife

This park is home to buffalo, giraffe, lion, leopard, baboon, zebra, wildebeest and cheetah, there are a total of about 100 mammal species present here. About 400 different bird species have been recorded over time.
