  • Driving Directions
    Routes from Nairobi to Rhino River Camp (by road). (Consider a six hours drive). From central Nairobi (via Museum Hill) take Thika road. Past Thika and before Sagana there is a junction: to the left the road goes towards Nyeri and Nanyuki, to the right it goes to Embu. First option: going left toward Nyeri-Nanyuki. Drive through Sagana, then Karitina. After 13 kms, there is a junction where you should turn right. At junction, instead of going straight to the road bound to Nyeri, take the road towards Naro Moru and Mt. Kenya. After Nanyuki proceed straight to Meru. The only major junction in the road Nanyuki-Meru is the one going to Isiolo which you disregard and proceed straight to Meru Town. At Meru Town, at the first major junction (see Shell station on your left), turn left toward Maua. After driving about 45 kms over the Nyambeni hills on this road find the junction at 2 km before Maua. This junction is plenty of signposts one of which is a KWS sign with Meru National Park. Turn left and start descending towards Meru National Park; proceed for 25 km until Murera Gate (main gate) of the Park. In the Park: Enter the Park and go for about 1.5 km till you reach the old gate. Do a sharp right turn immediately after the old gate (in fact is more of a U turn) and enter the Rhino Sanctuary passing under an elephant wired fence. Follow the Park fence going South. The fence is on your right and there are a few deviation but you have to always go back to the fence.
