Welcome to Laikipia
Expansive, Engaging, Exhilarating, Unrestricted

Laikipia is one of Africa’s and the world’s most exciting wilderness safari and wildlife tourism destinations. The combination of abundant wildlife, spectacular scenery and extraordinary cultural diversity in a setting dominated by the iconic backdrop of Mount Kenya makes for an unforgettable experience.
The ‘Laikipia experience’ comes largely free of the constraints that apply in most national parks and reserves. Night game drives, guided nature walks, bike tours, horse-riding and camel treks – all prohibited in most parks – are just some the exhilarating activities that await the visitor to Laikipia. People too are an integral part of the Laikipia experience. An inclusive eco-tourism infrastructure complete with high levels of community involvement and participation gives the visitor privileged access to the cultures and customs of the region’s Mukogodo Maasai, Samburu, Pokot and other peoples.

































Laikipia, lying on the thresholds of Kenya’s wild Northern rangelands stretches from the slopes of Mt Kenya to the rim of the Great Rift Valley and is larger than all of Kenya’s national parks and reserves except Tsavo. Its magnificent escarpments descend into the arid lands and semi deserts of Northern Kenya. A sanctuary for over 80 mammal species including black rhino, elephant, lion, leopard, Grevy Zebra, reticulated giraffe, aardwolf, wild dog and a wealth of African game, Laikipia biodiversity is globally unique.
