About

The Dinsho Grasslands surround the park's main headquarters, featuring a beautiful mix of open grassy plains and ancient juniper-hagenia woodlands. This highly accessible area is the best place in the park to spot massive, endemic herbivores like the majestic Mountain Nyala and the rare Menelik's Bushbuck grazing peacefully in the woodlands.
