Overview
About this safari
Taita Hills Game Sanctuary (commonly referred to as Salt Lick) is a privately owned conservation area located at the foot of the Taita Hills adjacent to Tsavo West National Park in Kenya. Taita Hills Salt Lick offers many diverse opportunities for guests to experience the wildlife, landscape and culture of this fascinating ecosystem. The Salt Lick Game Lodge in the heart of the Taita Hills Game Sanctuary is built on stilts around a waterhole and a Salt Lick - both attractions for a large array of wildlife, especially elephants. In the evenings the animals gather at the waterhole - a spectacular sight to behold, to drink at the watering hole.
