MARA INTREPIDS CAMP -
MAASAI MARA GAME
RESERVE,
KENYA
- Mara Intrepids Camp: Masai Mara
- Mara Intrepids is the most talked
about destination in the world’s most talked about wilderness. Sitting
above a sweeping bend in the Talek River, at the confluence of the
Maasai Mara’s four game-viewing areas, the camp enjoys one of the most
spectacular locations in the entire Mara ecosystem. Intrepids is a
short drive from the Mara River, where up to one-and-a-half million
wildebeest and zebra make their perilous migration crossing every July
and August. The camp itself is divided into four distinct areas, with
separate dining areas and ‘mess tents’ ensuring exclusivity for larger
groups travelling together. An Intrepids safari offers a unique
game-viewing adventure, including three daily game drives with our
experienced guides, educational outings with our famous Adventurers’
Club, and trips to Maasai villages where we support several community
development projects.

Mount Kenya is Africa’s
second highest mountain at 5,199m (17,058
feet) and the highest of all Kenya
Mountains. Mount Kenya is roughly circular, about 60km across at the
200mm contour, where the steep font hills rise out of the gentler slopes
of the centered highlands. At the centre of the massif, the main peaks
rise sharply from around 4,500m to the main summit of Batian 5,199m,
Nelion 5,188m and point Lenana 4,985m. Other major summits on the
mountain include Point Piggott 4,957m, Point Dutton 4,885 and Point John
4,883m. Of the three main peaks (Batian, Lenana and Nelion), only point
Lenana can be reached by trekkers and the other two being only for
technical climbers. |

Africa's highest
mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro stands on featureless part of the East
African plateau, on the Tanzanian side of the Kenya border near Moshi,
side by side with the smaller Mount Meru. These mountains are extinct
volcanoes, with Kilimanjaro actually being the agglomeration of three
distinct volcanoes, Kibo (5896m/ 19,340 ft), Mwenzi (5,149 / 16,896 ft)
and Shira (3,962m / 13,000 ft). whose violent creation is geologically
associated with the creation of the Great Rift Valley, 100km to the
West. |

Mount Meru is Mount
Kilimanjaro's little sister, standing at 4,566m compared to 5,895m, but
is still an impressive freestanding volcano, which makes a superb four
day climb to the top. It last erupted in 1910 therefore can be
classified as an active volcano. The first Mount Meru ascent was made by Dr. Fritz
Jaeger, 1904. The town of Arusha lies at the base of Mount Meru
Trekking, loads of trek companies do this trek. Wild animals are
frequently found on this mountain therefore an armed ranger usually
accompanies the trekkers. |
