Hell’s Gate National Park

Overview

The Giraffe Centre, located in Nairobi, Kenya, is a dedicated conservation centre focused on the endangered Rothschild giraffe, one of the most vulnerable giraffe subspecies. Founded in 1979, the centre provides a sanctuary for these giraffes and works to protect and increase their population in the wild. It offers visitors the rare opportunity to interact with giraffes up close, feeding them and learning about the important conservation efforts being made.

The centre is set in a lush, wooded area, providing a peaceful and educational experience for visitors of all ages. The Giraffe Centre not only supports giraffe conservation but also provides educational programs on wildlife and environmental issues, making it a perfect destination for families, schools, and anyone passionate about wildlife protection.

Best Time To Visit

The Best Time to Visit Hell’s Gate National Park is during the dry season, which runs from June to October. The weather is generally clear and dry, making it perfect for hiking, cycling, and wildlife viewing. During these months, animals are more likely to congregate around water sources, making it easier to spot wildlife. The rainy season from March to May can make some of the park’s trails muddy and slippery, but this time of year also offers lush, green landscapes and fewer visitors. The shoulder months of November and December are also a good time to visit, with mild weather and fewer crowds, allowing for a more peaceful experience.
