Elsa’s Kopje is in the heart of the park, on small rocky Mughwango hill that affords views that stretch from the 17,000 foot peak of Mt Kenya to the east. Below the hill is the site of George Adamson’s camp, and the hill was the playground of Elsa the lion. There is a fertile spring to the east of the hill and guests can watch vast herds of elephant, buffalo and giraffe make their way across the plains below.
