Kitich, meaning the place of happiness, is a lush oasis amid arid surroundings. The wild animals of the region have found refuge in the valley of the Mathews mountain range. Elephant, lion, leopard, greater kudu, waterbuck, forest hog and buffalo are among the species to be found here together with over 200 species of birds. Everything about Kitich camp has been left as natural as possible without sacrificing any important creature comfort. |

The people of the southern Mathews are the pastoral Samburu and Soyei who used to gather in the upper valley on the Ngeng River for feasting singing and dancing. Here in the Mathews mountain range they were always assured of water and grazing for their cattle. For more pictures visit Kitich Camp on their website: Click Here! |
