14 Days Kenya Magical North Experience, Chalbi Dessert

The northern area of Kenya is a large and beautiful part of the country. It has been relatively inaccessible up until now, despite being the traditional homeland of a wide diversity of indigenous peoples. Its landscape is diverse, mysterious, and stunningly beautiful, ranging from the lush highland green of the southern side of the Mathews range and Samburu National Park to the red sands of the northern borders with Ethiopia in the Chalbi desert.
