December 22, 2024 - 1 minute read

An upscale safari camp located in Kenya’s wildlife rich Amboseli ecosystem, Elephant Gorge nestles on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro within the ALOCA conservancies.

The lodge offers a unique and evocative safari experience with classic contemporary décor, capturing the history and romance of a bygone era. It's a tranquil retreat for those seeking an authentic, luxurious bush experience.

ALOCA (Amboseli Land Owners Conservation Association) is renowned for diverse landscapes and habitats. It’s a key migratory corridor and dispersal area used by wildlife moving from Amboseli National Park to Chyulu and Tsavo.

The area is easily accessible thanks to a well-developed road infrastructure and an airstrip in Kilitome. Features and attractions include:

  • Two prominent hills — Endonyo Entawua, on the southwest boundary with Kimana Group Ranch and Enoolarami towards the eastern boundary of the Elerai — which provide excellent panoramic views of the landscape.
  • Rocky hills to the south of Kitome.
  • Natural springs at Namelok, Kimana, Isinet, Impiron and Lemongo.
  • Unique habitats including riverine and woodlands in Kimana River, as well as grasslands and bushlands.
  • Salt licks at Olkelunyet and Kinluna.
