Kicheche Laikipia – Safari Camp in Ol Pejeta

Kicheche Laikipia is a small eco-camp in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Laikipia, set beneath the peaks of Mount Kenya. It is one of the family-run Kicheche safari camps and has just five standard tents and one family suite tucked into indigenous forest overlooking a waterhole.

At about 1,829 metres above sea level, days are fresh and bright and evenings are spent by a crackling fire. Tents have en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, eco toiletries made in northern Kenya, fans, yoga mats and WiFi, and the camp runs on 24-hour solar power. Meals are served in the lounge and dining tent or al fresco.

Ol Pejeta covers about 90,000 acres and is home to black rhinos and the last two northern white rhinos. Guests take game drives with seasoned naturalists and learn about the conservancy's conservation work.
