KITENGELA-KIPETO CONSERVATION AREA
Connecting Nairobi National Park to the greater Athi Kapiti landscape
The Kitengela-Kipeto Conservation Area project, located on the outskirts of Nairobi—one of the fastest-growing cities in the world—plays a crucial role in connecting Nairobi National Park to the greater Athi-Kapiti landscape. Renowned as the only park within a major city where one can see lions, leopards, rhinoceroses, and more, Nairobi National Park is fenced on three sides. Its open southern boundary allows migrating wildlife to move between the park and the adjacent Kitengela plains. This critical, indigenous-owned corridor, the Kitengela-Kipeto Conservation Area, is the only access for animals to move in and out of the park. EarthAcre is dedicated to keeping this vital area open, ensuring the park's wildlife can continue to thrive despite rapid urban growth.
