The Ark
The Ark Lodge in the heart of Aberdare National Park, is an iconic and delightfully quirky sanctuary that overlooks a floodlit waterhole and salt lick, drawing a fascinating array of wildlife. Inspired by the legendary Noah’s Ark, this unique lodge features three expansive decks adorned with numerous balconies and lounges, offering unparalleled views for observing the captivating animals that frequent the area.
For the discerning photographer, a ground-level bunker serves as the perfect hideaway. This circular, pillbox-like structure allows for breathtaking photography of animals just yards away from the salt lick, all through secure view holes. Here, in this intimate setting, one can almost reach out to touch the animals, hear their calls, and inhale the enchanting scents of the night. It is a magical corner of the world, where the essence of uncharted Africa comes alive, and visitors can often find solitude amidst the breathtaking beauty that surrounds them.
