Chyulu hills 

gallop through the “green Hills” of hemingway’s africa

Discover the Chyulu Hills, the emerald “Green Hills of Africa” immortalized by Ernest Hemingway and one of Kenya’s most exclusive safari destinations. This stunning, young volcanic range features a unique topography of rolling green hills, ancient lava tubes, and lush cloud forests, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro. As a vital wildlife corridor linking Tsavo and Amboseli, the Chyulu Hills offer intimate encounters with the Big 5 and are a crucial sanctuary for some of the world’s last giant “super tusker” elephants. The ultimate way to explore this vast, private wilderness is on an exhilarating horseback riding safari, allowing you to ride alongside giraffe and zebra in one of Africa’s most iconic landscapes.
