The Ark

Aberdare National Park, Kenya - Classic 4

Set in the heart of the Aberdare National Park, this unique game lodge overlooks a floodlit waterhole and salt lick which attracts a host of wildlife:  elephant; rhino; leopard; bushbuck and occasionally an elusive bongo or giant forest hog.  Resembling, and named after, Noah's Ark, the Ark comprises three decks from which numerous balconies and lounges provide superb vantage points for game viewing. A ground level bunker provides excellent photographic opportunities and takes you closer than you would believe possible to the animals.

Comfortable en-suite cabins are fitted with buzzers to announce the arrival of one of the “Big Five”; at the water hole. Before embarking on the half-hour drive to The Ark, lunch is served at the charming Aberdare Country Club. Dinner and breakfast are served on board!
