The Campi ya Kanzi waterhole webcam streams live from a remote watering point in southern Kenya, where animals come to drink with the vast savannah and, on clear days, Mount Kilimanjaro on the horizon. Live stream by the Africam YouTube channel.
In the foreground lies the waterhole itself: a shallow pool of red earth edged by grass and a low stone trough. Behind it, acacias and dense bush open onto a wide plain that fades into blue hills. Impala often gather here in herds, giraffes stoop to drink, and zebras and other antelope pass through during the day. The camera is operated remotely and sometimes zooms in on the animals or on birds perched in the trees.
A waterhole on Maasai land
Campi ya Kanzi, Swahili for camp of the hidden treasure, lies on the Kuku Group Ranch, around 283,000 acres of Maasai-owned land at the foot of the Chyulu Hills, between Amboseli and Tsavo West national parks. The solar-powered lodge was built in partnership with the local Maasai community and supports conservation through the Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust. For more live views of the area, see our Amboseli webcams.

Watch the live image to see which animals are at the waterhole right now, how green the bush is after the rains and whether the clouds have lifted from Kilimanjaro. After dark, lions and other nocturnal visitors may appear.
