Description
Kipalo Hills
YOUR HOME IN TSAVO WEST NATIONAL PARK
The place you return to again and again“. This is what Kipalo means in the language of the Taitas, the tribe living in the region. No wonder – the view from the slopes of the Mbulia Hills over the vast plains of Tsavo and the Ngulia Hills to the majestic Mt. Kilimanjaro is sim- ply breathtaking and awakens a feeling of infinite freedom. If you are looking for seclusion, privacy and unforgettable encounters with Kenya‘s unique wildlife, then Kipalo Hills is the place for you. The camp, which nestles perfectly against the rocky hillside, was established on the grounds of the Mbulia Group Ranch, which covers almost 36,000 acres, on the initiative of the local people. As with all other Secluded Africa lodges, part of the income generated by the guests goes directly to the Secluded Africa Wildlife & Community Trust and thus also benefits the local population.
A waterhole right next to the camp attracts elephants, buffalos and occasionally even leopards and the very rarely wild dogs. The swimming pool provides refreshment between activities, and the surrounding rocks form an atmospheric backdrop for your sundowner. With a gin & tonic in hand, watching the sun slowly sink into the horizon as a glowing red ball, romantic moments are guaranteed for eternity. The safari tents, luxury suite and private villa, which blend beautifully into the grounds and unspoilt nature surrounding the main mess, also offer unparalleled views of the spectacular scenery and impenetrable wilderness across the Mbulia Conservancy plains that stretches as far as the eye can see.
