Sightseeing in Nyandarua can be an adventurous alternative for travelers seeking some real thrill in the jungles of Africa.
Following can be your options for sightseeing in Nyandarua:
- Amboseli National Park
Amboseli, lies in the shadow of Kilimanjaro mountain. The combination of salt flat and marshland gives it one of the most dramatic settings in Kenya, and the mountain makes a striking background for capturing the animals in photograph. Lunch can be enjoyed on the way in a roadside restaurant.
A game viewing drive can be taken to take account of the abundance of wildlife that flourishes here. Amboseli is known for its elephant herds, spectacular to watch as elephants and buffaloes stand in the marshes to keep themselves cool, drink water and munch on the vegetation. Other animals, such as zebras and wildebeests and even lions can be found here. The park is also a bird-watcher's paradise.
- Aberdares National Park
You can enjoy a long drive to the Aberdare region, with picturesque locations accompanying you on your way. After taking a lunch at the Aberdares Country Club or Outspan hotel, you can take a drive to your tree hotel with only an overnight bag while the rest of the luggage remains safeguarded at the base hotel. The national park is home to such rare species as bongo (these are large antelopes; their hides were used to make drums) and black rhino; but the dense forest of the Aberdares region makes it difficult to locate animals.
