Shaba Wilderness Camp

Northern Kenya

A more remote and volcanic alternative to Samburu, famous for its scenic beauty.

Overview

Neighboring Samburu, Shaba is quieter and features dramatic volcanic landscapes, springs, and rocky hills. It was made famous by Joy Adamson and offers a truly secluded wilderness camping experience.

What Makes It Special

Volcanic springs that attract wildlife in the arid landscape, and far fewer tourists than other parks.
