Thika  >  Kenya

A very nice walk along the gardens, the Thika river and the Thika Falls, on the premises of the Blue Post Hotel, an early British colonial place.

Beschrijving

The Blue Post Hotel is a nice place for a stop over. Take the walk through the gardens and along the river, starting with the Thika Falls. This is a very good place to see African Finfoot, one of Africa's most elusive waterbirds. Also a nice place for many garden birds and Sykes' monkey (Cercopithecus mitis albogularis).
