More info on Loisaba Conservancy

Loisaba is a 57,000 acre conservancy within Laikipia County, owned by the Loisaba Community Trust. A Kenyan Trust that is committed to wildlife and ecological conservation. The Loisaba mission is to protect and enhance critical wildlife diversity, abundance and habitat in the Loisaba landscape. Here there are no game park rules, no caged animals and none of the constraints of western life.

Loisaba sits on a vital Elephant Corridor connecting the famous Laikipia Plateau and plays a key role in supporting one of Kenya’s largest and most stable lion populations. The Conservancy is also home to several critically endangered large mammals, including Grevy’s zebra, wild dog, leopard and cheetah. While concurrently supporting sustainable livestock production and improving the lives of neighboring communities. The local Samburu and Maasai tribes are full partners in the project so your visit not only conserves the environment but also pays for the education and welfare of the people who call this remote and magnificent region home. This basic premise infiltrates every part of the ranch.

Home to elephant, a healthy population of lion, the rare wild dog and an abundance of other species, Loisaba is a prime example of successful collaboration between conservation, communities, ranching and tourism.

Loisaba is not just a holiday destination of natural beauty and infinite variety. It is a practical project in sustainable land-use.
