9. Hell's Gate National Park in Kenya
Hell's Gate National Park in Kenya is located about 93 km northwest of Nairobi. The park was named after a narrow break in the cliffs, which was once a tributary of a prehistoric lake which once carried water to the early humans in the Rift Valley. This park is small in comparison to the other national parks in Africa but one can always spot a variety of animal species like lions, leopards cheetahs, Giraffes etc. the main reason this park is famous is that it has a lower park fees when compared to the other national park and also that it is one of the only two parks in Kenya that allow biking among other activities. For all the movie buff here a piece of information that would excite you, the settings of the 1994 film The Lion King is modeled after this park.

Not To Miss: There are a lot of sites in the park that offer themselves for climbing. Out of them Fischer's Tower is one of the park's many popular rock-climbing sites. Camping the night at the park is yet another activity that shouldn't be missed out on.
