About Taita Hills Sanctuary
The Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary is a 28,000-acre private reserve tucked between Tsavo East and Tsavo West, sharing their elephant herds without their crowds. Its icon is Salt Lick Lodge, raised on stilts above a busy waterhole, one of the most photographed safari lodges in the world, where elephants drink metres below your room. Night game drives (rare in Kenya's parks) and the lush Taita Hills backdrop make it a distinctive southern-Kenya stop en route to the coast.
