Hostelling Information

Country Overview

Watch cheetah, elephant, rhino and herds of antelope in the wild; look out for lions; see giraffes wander among acacia trees; climb the second highest mountain in Africa; hike through stunning scenery; camp (safely) in the open. This colourful and staggeringly beautiful country not only presents superb opportunities for big game viewing in dramatic landscape, it also offers scope for great outdoor adventure, from mountain biking to river rafting. Kenya?s five hostels are well placed to take in just some of the highlights and activities of this startling land. From Nairobi, the cosmopolitan capital, to the base of Mount Kenya and the bird–rich areas of Lake Naivasha, near Hell?s Gate Park, and Embu, where tawny owls and bearded woodpeckers can be seen, the hostels can provide a wide variety of tours and biking packages.
