Visit Hell's Gate National Park on a day trip from Nairobi! One of the few Kenyan nature reserves where walking is safe, the park is home to Africa's more serene wild animals – a fact that sits at odds with the parks hellish-sounding name. Admire zebras, gazelles and rare birdlife like Verreaux's Eagles, and then visit Elsamere Conservation Center -- a big-cat orphanage -- on the shores of beautiful Lake Naivasha.
