Location:

Our new Laikipia Camp is a small luxurious tented camp, nestled at the foot of indigenous forest overlooking a waterhole, in the centre of the Ol Pejeta Conservancy. It's twelve guests are hosted by the inimitable Andy and Sonja Webb.

The Ol Pejeta Conservancy is 90,000 acres of wilderness and offers an incredibly uncrowded environment to enjoy quality game viewing. The Conservancy is home to Kenya's largest population of Black Rhino, large numbers of elephant, cheetah, lion, leopard and plentiful plains game.

There are also a number of rarer Northern species such as Grevy's Zebra, Jacksons Hartebeest and Beisa Oryx.

Kicheche is located in the Wilderness zone of the Conservancy and with only one bed per 1,500 acres this offers an incredibly private experience. The Conservancy lies on the equator and has Mt Kenya as a stunning backdrop.

Accommodations:

The camp consists of six luxurious tents The tents are custom designed and are fully insect-proof with en-suite bathrooms equipped with a dresser, flushing toilet and hot showers.

There are comfortable chairs on each verandah overlooking the waterhole. One tent can be converted into a triple on request.

There is a spacious well furnished lounge and dining tent, although we prefer to eat alfresco if weather permits.

Game Viewing & Activities:

We offer a full selection of game-viewing activities including Day Game Drives, Night Game Drives which focus on nocturnal species not seen on regular day drives. Interpretative Game Walks are another activity permitted on the Conservancy.
There is also a Lion Tracking program which monitors the lions of the area (some have been collared with receivers). As part of the program we are able to track the lions with a portable satellite dish and remit the data to the study centre.

A Horse Riding excursion is currently being set up, more details will be made available soon.

In addition, the Wildlife Educational Centre is interesting for both children and adults alike, and the Chimpanzee Sanctuary for orphaned chimps is an excellent venue to observe the two families and learn about the perils facing chimpanzees in the wild.
