Overview
Hell's Gate National Park is a unique and remarkable conservation area in Kenya, approximately 90 kilometers (56 miles) northwest of Nairobi. Covering an area of about 68 square kilometers (26 square miles), it is one of the smallest national parks in Kenya. Still, it offers stunning landscapes, geothermal features, and a range of outdoor activities.
The park derives its name from the narrow, towering cliffs that form a deep gorge within its boundaries. These cliffs create a dramatic and awe-inspiring entrance to the park. Hell's Gate is known for its geothermal activity, with hot springs and geysers scattered throughout the park.
One of the main attractions of Hell's Gate National Park is its unique landscape, predominantly composed of towering red cliffs, deep gorges, and scenic valleys. The park's terrain is ideal for hiking, rock climbing, and mountain biking. Visitors can explore the park on foot or rent bicycles to enjoy the breathtaking scenery.
Wildlife in Hell's Gate National Park is diverse, with several mammal species, including zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, elands, gazelles, and hyraxes. The park also has a healthy population of raptors, including Verreaux's eagles, augur buzzards, and vultures. It's not uncommon to see these majestic birds soaring above the cliffs.
