Amboseli's
location deep
inside the
Amboseli
national Park
guarantees it's
visitors close
encounters with
the park's
renowned
elephants. Also
happily roaming
the grasslands
are buffallos,
wildebeast,
zebra, giraffes,
impalas and
several
predators.
Located 280
kilometers south
of Nairobi and
260 kilometers
north of
Mombasa. During
the wet season,
the rains flood
the lake bed and
the surrounding
area.
Though, this
plentiful water
does not sustain
a rich vegetal
variety. The
cause is the
high salt
deposits in the
lake bed, which
the flood dilute
and disperse
hindering plant
growth. For this
reason few trees
grow in the
park, only small
patches of
acacia and some
palm trees far
off the lake.
Contrariwise,
salt-rich
pastures grow
and are very
appreciated by
the herbivores.
Despite the
first impression
of a dusty and
arid land,
actually
Amboseli is
overflowing with
water all the
year round, but
under the
ground.
The snows of
Kilimanjaro melt
and flow
downhill,
soaking the
porous subsoil
layers of
volcanic rocks.
Waters converge
into various
underground
streams, that
rise in two
clear water
springs in the
center of the
park and ooze
from down under
in several
points giving
birth to large
marshes like the
Loginya Swamp,
in which papyrus
grow and
elephants,
hippos and
buffalos find
their particular
spas, together
with their
accompanying
cattle egrets
This luxurious
tented lodge
offers 60 modern
tents with a
private view
onto Mt.
Kilimanjaro. The
spacious tents
boast of ensuite
bathroom with a
steaming hot
shower, a
washbasin and
flush toilets.
Facilities
include;
Freeform
swimming pool
with sunbathing
terrace, Custom
built
four-wheel-drive
safari vehicles,
Reliable
240-volt
generator
electricity
supply, Spa and
Souvenir
boutique.
