Is Karura Forest safe?

Yes. Karura Forest is a highly safe location. Once considered a hazardous area more than 15 years ago, it is now one of Nairobi's safest neighborhoods because of its amazing efforts. The woodland is surrounded by an electric fence to guarantee that only those who are approved to enter are allowed in. The only wild creatures you'll likely encounter are monkeys, so don't be concerned about them.

Karura Forest Nairobi is a haven of peace in the heart of one of Africa's fastest-growing and most chaotic cities. Karura Forest spans 2500 acres and is home to waterfalls, towering trees, tangled vines, and wild creatures, all connected by calm walkways. Nairobi locals head to Karura Forest to walk, ride, exercise and eat lunch at the serenely lovely River Café.

Karura Forest Nairobi is home to one of the world's largest gazetted woods, which lies entirely within the city. A natural wonder that reminds us of the splendor of Kenya's countryside. This part of Nairobi was previously highly wooded, and the remnant old woodland stands in stark contrast to the chaos of houses and highways that lie beyond.
