A portion of the park comprises a dried-up lake bed, where mirages rise from the shimmering heat. Return to the lodge at sunset for dinner and an overnight.

The Park spans 392 square kilometers and is renowned for its panoramic view of Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest freestanding mountain on earth and the tallest in Africa, standing at 5,895 meters. Amboseli is also known as an elephant's paradise, where massive African Savannah Elephants roam from swamp to swamp, grazing all day.
