Ol Pejeta Bush Camp sits on the bank of the Ewaso Nyiro River inside the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Laikipia, below the foothills of Mount Kenya, about 45 minutes by road from Kamok airstrip. Tents are en-suite with hot running water; power is solar with a generator backup, and laundry and Wi-Fi are included. Activities are twice-daily game drives, night drives, and conservation-linked outings including sessions with the anti-poaching canine unit and logging lion sightings for the conservancy's research team. Ol Pejeta holds all of the Big Five, a chimpanzee sanctuary housing rescued animals, and the world's last two northern white rhinos. The camp closes for May.
What sets it apart
Its conservation activities are built around Ol Pejeta's research and anti-poaching teams, so guests contribute sightings data and join canine-unit training rather than only viewing wildlife.
Who it suits
Rhino and conservation interest; Mount Kenya views; families.

About the photographs
The pictures on this page are stock photographs of African bush and desert country, chosen to suggest the kind of landscape you find around the Laikipia plateau below Mount Kenya. They are not photographs of this property, and we cannot verify where any of them was taken — a stock library records the photographer, not the place. We use them rather than borrow the property's own marketing images, which would imply we had been there. For pictures of the rooms, see the property's own site.
