Meru National Park

Meru national park-Kenya wildlife parks.

Meru National Park is a Kenyan forest reserve located east of Meru, 350 km from Nairobi. Covering an area of 87,044 hectares.

Meru national park is famous as the place where Elsa, the lioness of Joy Adamson's book 'Born Free', was returned to the wilds.

Of all of Kenya's parks, Meru presents the widest variety of landscapes and habitat. Forest, swamp and savannah are pierced by fifteen perennial rivers all rising from the Mount Kenya massif and destined to reach the Tana River which forms the park's lower boundary.

Meru is alive with an enormous variety of colourful birds. Part of Meru's charm is that this park has never enjoyed the popularity of many of the other parks and reserves.

This is where George and Joy Adamson released several hand-reared animals.
