Place
Kora National Park
Nature
Kora, Tana River County, Kenya
Remote Tana River wilderness where seasonal waterways, acacia woodland, doum palms, and granite inselbergs shape the landscape.
Why go
Why visit this place?
Kora extends the Meru conservation landscape across the Tana River into a much more remote park, with elephants, lesser kudu, predators, reptiles, insects, and varied birdlife.
When you arrive
What to expect
Long, slow distances on rough roads and tracks, little margin for casual arrival, and a landscape where river conditions, fuel, water, daylight, and self-sufficiency matter.
Local knowledge
Local tip
Kenya Wildlife Service advises four-wheel drive throughout the year. Confirm gates, bridge status, road conditions, fuel, water, and park arrangements before setting out.
Visiting
Getting there
From Meru National Park, the road crosses the Tana at Adamson's Bridge and continues past Kora headquarters toward Kambi ya Simba. Southern approaches run through Mwingi, Kyuso, and Tseikuru.
Best time: Kora is listed as accessible throughout the year, but seasonal rivers and rain can materially change remote-road conditions.
