Shompole Wilderness Camp – Safari Camp in Shompole

Shompole Wilderness Camp is a small safari camp on the banks of the Ewaso Ngiro River, on Shompole Community Land in southern Kenya, Kajiado County. The du Toit family and their local Maasai team manage the camp together, and the area lies in the wild country between Lake Magadi and Lake Natron on the Tanzania border.

With just six tents and miles of land to explore, a stay at Shompole feels both homely and wild. The camp provides separate towels for the swimming pool and for the river, where guests can cool off in natural pools.

Shompole is also known for the Shompole Hides, two photographic hides that took years to develop and now give photographers close views of wildlife coming to drink.

The camp offers a wide variety of activities, including game drives, walks with Maasai guides, river time, birding and cultural visits with the Shompole community. Rates, activities and bookings are on the Shompole Wilderness website.
