Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary
Kenya’s most successful conservancy
The Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary takes its name from the surrounding hill clusters and is an important part of the Eastern Arc forests, which are designated as a biodiversity hotspot. The conservancy encompasses 28,000 acres that straddles the Southern Tsavo West National Park and serves as an important dispersal area and migrating corridor for wildlife between Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Parks, making it a highly valued tourism recreational area as well as an ecologically significant area. The topography is generally mountainous, with breathtaking views of Kilimanjaro, Pare, and Uluguru mountains, as well as clusters of Taita Hills, and a seasonal river that divides the sanctuary into valleys and lowland plains.
