Lewa, Il Ngwesi & Loisaba Conservancies

Lewa Conservancy in northern Kenya is one of today’s most successful conservancies in Africa. In 1983, the land was designated as the privately-owned Ngare Rhino Sanctuary in response to threats to northern Kenya’s black rhino population. Twelve years later, the area was re-named the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy. Today, it is a 62,000-acre pioneering model of successful conservation that balances human use and protection of natural resources, both in wildlife and wilderness. The success of the conservation eorts led to the boundaries of the Mount Kenya’s UNESCO World Heritage Site including Ngare Ndare Forest

The IL Ngwesi Conservancy was developed as part of the collaboration between the Maasai people of Laikipia Outback and Borana Conservancy. The conservancy represents a local replication of the successful, self-sustaining conservancy model developed by the Lewa and Borana Conservancies. Il Ngwesi is most beloved for its star-bed lodge, Il Ngwesi Lodge. Endless activities including bush roaming with Maasai guides.

Loisaba is your dream unspoiled wilderness destination in Africa. Highly photogenic and horizon vistas. A stay at Elewana Loisaba or Loisaba Star Beds is a fulfilling quiet holiday idea. Visiting Loisaba Conservancy gives you a much-desired chance to see the African bush without boundaries, so the fauna roams freely without the threat of poachers. You will not see a fence, caged animals or other signs of human encroachment and presence. In fact, guest numbers are limited, with the intent not to see another safari vehicle during your game drives. Loisaba Conservancy is operated through a partnership between the private owners, Maasai and the Samburu peoples.

The part community-private owned conservancy covers 57,000 acres, oering guests access to some of Kenya’s untouched wilderness that is home to diverse species. Part of the profits from conservancy fees and rooming costs are used to maintain and advance conservation activities, as well as to support educational, enterprise and health programs for the Laikipia Samburu and Maasai tribes. A worthy cause. Choose a holiday in Laikipia today!
