Kilimanjaro Bush Camp

The SFS Center for Wildlife Management Studies operates from two field stations in East Africa, the Kilimanjaro Bush Camp (KBC) in Kenya and the Moyo Hill Camp (MHC) in Tanzania. In Kenya, the Kilimanjaro Bush Camp is located southeast of Nairobi on 25 acres of fenced land at the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro, bordering a permanent river fed by natural springs. Adjacent to the river is a lush zone of yellow Acacia trees with clear undergrowth giving a perfect view of the magnificent vegetation mosaic. Across the river is Kimana High School, where SFS students enjoy a rare opportunity for cultural exchange with Kenyan youth and to visit nearby Maasai bomas (villages). Students sleep in thatched-roof bandas, with a main building, or chumba, which houses a dining room, kitchen, and classroom. Additional facilities include a duka (shop), bathrooms and open-air showers.
