:: The Aberdares
National Park
Within a beautiful mountain range in
the central highlands of Kenya is
the Aberdares National Park, a fa iry
tale place of dense forest, misty
moorlands and alpine plants where
icy rivers plunge in glorious
cascades and waterfalls.
The 766 sq. km of the area are rich
in wildlife. The Salient stretching
out towards the nearby town of Nyeri,
was once an elephant migration
route, not used today. These great
animals remain within the park
together with buffalo, a wide
variety of antelope, giant forest
hog, the elusive bongo, rhino, lions
and hyenas. Tacazze and Malachite
Sunbird, Mountain Buzzard and
African Goshawk are found in this
area where the birdlife is abundant
and varied.
