Learned about the conservation efforts by the community. Butterfly farming and bee farming. We got an opportunity to see the birds that only exist in that forest. As you leave the forest make a point to purchase their honey at Gede.

We started our guided walk with Wyclef at the Rondo Retreat Centre. The vegetation inside the forest is unique and the plants are so diverse. Our guide Wyclef explained a lot about the vegetation, plants and some animals. We were climbing a hill on top of the forest were we had a 360 degree view over the forest. It was very interesting and enjoyable!
7. Karura Forest
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,032 reviews
The Karura Forest Reserve is an urban upland forest on the outskirts of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. This remarkable geographical location and natural resource is one of the largest gazetted forests in the world fully within a city limits. It covers an area of about 1,000 ha (2,500 ac) and today is a shining example of how country-based corporate social responsibility and individual philanthropy can serve to secure and protect a country's natural resources. The forest offers eco-friendly opportunities for Kenyans and visitors to enjoy a leafy green respite from the hustle and bustle of the city to walk, to jog, or simply to sit quietly and experience the serenity of nature in all its diversity.

Far to the north of Kenya, lies the Marsabit National Park. It is a densely forested mountain having three crater lakes in it. It is an oasis of green in this arid, desert region of Kenya. The lakes provide a haven for a variety of birdlife, mammals and reptiles. The park is known for its huge, impressive tusked-elephants. However, this national park is not much known for game-drives. If you are heading up to Lake Turkana, this acts as an interesting site to spend a night in. We reached Marsabit National Park at around 5.30 PM, soon after which it became dark
