Laikipia Conservancies

Overview

Laikipia is community and private conservancy country, where wildlife density is high and vehicle traffic is almost non-existent. Because these are not national parks, you can walk with an armed guide, track on foot, and drive after dark to look for leopard, aardvark and striped hyena. The plateau holds significant populations of black rhino, Grevy's zebra and African wild dog. Conservation and ranching work here directly, and lodges are small and owner-run.
