Nairobi National Park

Nairobi National Park is the first park to be gazetted in Kenya and is located about 7km south of Nairobi. It’s the only wildlife park in the world that is so close to the city.

The park covers an area of 117km2. It consists partly of thick woods near the city outskirts, partly of rolling plains and valleys, and partly of a wooded confluence of several rivers.

Nairobi National Park is the central rhino breeding sanctuary. Restocking other packs, the park is home to over 100 mammal species, having four of the big five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino), zebra, giraffes, various species of antelope, and over 500 recorded bird species, including secretary bird, lesser kestrel, martial eagle, sooty falcon, grey crowned crane, and many more.

The park has the Nairobi Animal Orphanage, located within the park, which serves as a treatment and rehabilitation center for wild animals such as lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and others.

The park offers a range of activities, including walking safaris, bird-watching, game drives, an ivory-burning site, and a picnic area.
