Nairobi Arboretum is 30.4 acres of a wooded paradise home to over 350 species of indigenous and exotic plant life and over 100 species of birds. It is located along the State House Road in Kilimani. It has shaded trails for walkways, picnic lawns and jogging trails. Sykes and Vervet monkeys can also be spotted here.
The varied and rich wildlife includes cypress, hook pine, jacaranda, guava, wild gardenia, Cape chestnut, balhambra, bauhinia, and silver oak. The grove of towering Bhutan cypresses is considered particularly beautiful, and one of the cypresses from this grove is the oldest tree in the Arboretum. Unfortunately, riding a bike inside the Arboretum is not permitted.
