Amani Garden - Karura Forest

As always being at Karura makes me feel amazing and free.. Friends of karura limuru road so beautiful and peaceful for running, walking and bird watching. There's an amazing picnic area that's so beautiful I couldn't believe it, a nice playground for kids and an event cook out area. If you don't feel eating from the restaurant at Karura you can bring your own 👍🏽 If I haven't expressed this enough I really love this place 💯💯

Good place to visit for walk or run or biking. Many trails with less than 1.5kms one way, visit water falls, and semi cave, densed forests, and safe to walk. They will take your water bottles at the gate. So take minimum water in non plastic container if you have reuseable ones.

I had read many great reviews about Amani Gardens in Karura and had it on my to-do list for a while. This weekend, my friends and I finally planned a picnic there, but sadly, the experience was very disappointing. Right at the entrance, we felt unfairly singled out. The guards went through our food items, touching and frisking things that were clearly not even plastic, even though we had already paid the entry and picnic charges. After some back and forth, we decided to leave and look for another place and we weren’t even refunded. We fully respect rules and regulations, but it’s disappointing when they’re applied with double standards. Such a shame, because we were genuinely looking forward to enjoying the peaceful and beautiful setting the place is known for.

I really enjoyed this place. There's so much peace. I highly recommend it especially after a long tiring week in town. I would definitely visit more often.

Nice for a walk, run, or cycle. There are 3 paths rated difficulty and distance. Recommended.

Amazing environment. If you love nature you know what I am saying.

Very nicely maintained, but we kept getting in trouble for playing simple games. Playing is only allowed on the picnic area equipment. Playing catch, badminton, botchi ball...all forbidden, though no notifications about what is not allowed is posted anywhere. It was a disappointing trip for my group.

Beautiful quite location perfect for walking running cycling, lots for kids to do.
