Amboseli is famous for its large elephant herds. Arid-looking, it has historically supported both game and the Maasai who kept their herds of cattle here. Thanks to the waters that run off Africa’s greatest mountain, the dry Amboseli, Kenya’s first game sanctuary can support its wildlife. Mount Kilimanjaro broods high over Amboseli, generally cloaked by clouds but appearing in all its snow-shrouded magnificence occasionally. The mountain now provides water for the park, wonderful views and of course the most glorious background for animal photography.
