Set in the shadow of Mount Kenya, the Laikipia Plateau is a patchwork quilt of conservancies (private game reserves) home to endangered species. In some, Kenya’s rare wild dogs scour the plains and black rhinos graze, protected by private rangers. Stretching all the way to the Great Rift Valley’s rim, the area is divided into private ranches and reserves, many controlled by native landowners like the Maasai, Laikipia and Samburu people, who generate income from intimate safari tourism. These initiatives have made Laikipia a shining conservation star, creating a biodiverse haven with a wildlife density second only to the famous Maasai Mara.
Stay in luxury lodges and tented camps that help to protect Africa’s finest: golden-maned lions, Jackson’s hartebeest and half the world’s population of Grevy’s zebra. As you cruise the plains by jeep, you’ll pass herds of impalas or gazelle and spot shy cheetahs and towering giraffes traversing the hilly savannah. You might even glimpse thousands of elephants making their yearly migration from Laikipia to Samburu during the Long Rains. At the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, you’ll find rescued chimps and east Africa’s largest black rhino sanctuary, which protects half of the country’s scant population of these fabled creatures.
Experience Laikipia’s lodges and safaris with help from our destination experts, who can arrange conservation-focused experiences.
