It’s a perfect family holiday bolthole, but equally thrilling for a couple on an adventure.

Laikipia Wilderness Camp - The Facts

Set on a hillside above the Ewaso Narok River, Laikipia Wilderness Camp is in the heart of the region and benefits from all the lovely views, exciting activities and brilliant wildlife within. It’s all about understated luxury: you won’t find pools here, but instead wonderful moments under the stars, freshening up in your outdoor shower, and enjoying a cold drink with campfire tales.

With just six tented rooms all decked out with private verandas, the atmosphere in camp is cosy, yet there’s a huge amount of space to relax and enjoy the brilliant views down onto the Laikipia bush. The camp is structured by chunky, attractive wooden beams and canvas, for an authentic safari feel.

It’s a family orientated spot, as the camp consists of four family tents - double rooms with interconnecting twins, and one with an interconnecting quadruple room - as well as two double tents with open-air bathrooms.

The main mess tent has an inviting dining room and relaxation area with books, board games, and comfortable chill out spots. Guests can enjoy dining in various locations in the spacious main area, from al-fresco breakfasts to dinner by candlelight. Venture to the top of camp to enjoy a swinging bench which has 360-degree views of the surrounding wilderness, even glimpsing Mount Kenya on clear days.

Activities are the name of the game here, with tailored days depending on each guest’s preference. Guests can enjoy the classic game drives, night drives, bike rides, walking safaris, rock scrambling, fly camping, fishing and even rafting. If you stay four nights, this will allow for a night of sleeping out under the stars in a wild spot. Nearby wildlife includes lions, zebra, striped hyena, buffalo, giraffe, leopard, elephant, and buffalo.

A pack of wild dogs have also long been monitored in the region, giving guests a good chance to see these elusive hunters. Another special sighting here is the rare black leopard, where you likely won’t see anywhere else on the continent. One female was born just 100m away from camp. It’s safe to say, your safari experience won’t disappoint.
