Wilder Living

A lifestyle in Kenya

Beautiful forest camp in Sangare Conservancy

Between the Aberdare Mountain Range and Mt Kenya lies a gem of biodiversity – Sangare Conservancy. There are three enchanted Valleys, plains and bush land, dams, wetlands, rivers and an abundance of bird and wildlife. In one of these valleys where the Ancient Riverine forest has been preserved either side of the Amboni River which runs off the Aberdare Mountains the Amboni Riverine Forest Camp is situated.

Nestled on the valley floor under the canopy of tall wild Palms, giant Newtonia and Podo trees amongst other diverse flora, is the Amboni Riverine Forest Camp. Here below the steep cliffs where eagles and falcons soar, the fringe forests of wild olives. There is a wilder world full of bird life, forest animals and of course the run of the river which is bi annually stocked with rainbow trout.

The lounge and living deck has an open plan kitchen with fridge and freezer space. Meals are served here or outside on the verandah deck. Gentle and warm solar powered lights with evening log fires and candlelit dinners. The atmosphere is cosy in this outside living experience.
