Located in Kenya’s dry north, Buffalo Springs National Reserve offers a different landscape compared to the southern parks. It sits just across the Ewaso Nyiro River from Samburu National Reserve. The reserve is famous for its semi-arid beauty, doum palms, and a clear water spring that gives the park its name.
The terrain consists of rolling grasslands and old lava flows. These volcanic features create a stark and interesting environment for photography. The Ewaso Nyiro River provides a green lifeline for the animals, drawing wildlife to its banks throughout the year.
Travellers visit Buffalo Springs for its quiet atmosphere and unique wildlife. It feels more remote and less crowded than other popular reserves. This makes it a great choice for those who want a calm safari experience with plenty of space to observe nature.
