Nairobi National Park |
|
Nairobi National Park is located 15 minutes from downtown city center. It was established in 1945 as the first national park in Kenya. It is 44 square miles in size and much to everyone's surprise, all the wildlife are free ranging. The meeting of the Athi and Kapiti plains promoted the abundance of animals within the surrounding location. 
Located on the outskirts of Nairobi, the park offers spotting of Lions, Leopard, Rhino and other plains game with the exception of Elephant.Vegetation is primarily savannah with isolated stretches of riverine forests. Several hundred species of birds can also be spotted here.
This park is excellent for a day visit from Nairobi. No accommodation/lodges available inside the park
