Description
Tucked away between Tsavo West National Park and Amboseli National Park, Chyulu Hills National Park boasts striking and diverse landscapes.
Chyulu is a rugged wilderness still showing signs of its volcanic origins – and boasting some of the best views of Kilimanjaro. The reserve is a rugged jumble of ancient volcanic cones and craters, as well as the longest lava tube in the world.
In addition to the breathtaking landscapes and views, Chyulu is home to a wonderful selection of games, including buffalo, antelope, elephant, leopard, wildebeest, and zebra. The bird watchers’ paradise of Lake Jipe lies in the south-west corner of the reserve.
