The Ark Lodge is set in the heart of the Aberdare National Park and overlooks a floodlit waterhole & salt lick, which attracts a host of awesome wildlife.
Resembling and named after Noah’s Ark, The Ark comprises of three decks from which numerous balconies and lounges provide a superb location for wildlife to be seen.
So that you don’t miss any animal sightings, the night guard will buzz your room when special animals come to the waterhole.
The Ark Lodge has four viewing areas from which to observe the ever-present animal activity at the waterhole and saltlick.
There is also a ground-level bunker – the perfect hideout for the discerning photographer. This is a circular pillbox-like structure, and it is from this vantage point that pictures of animals on the salt lick only yards away may be taken through the view holes in complete safety.
So as not to miss any animal sightings, the resident guide will buzz your room when special animals come to the waterhole. Simply throw on your provided robe and slippers, grab your camera and view nightlife at the waterhole!
