Kenya Wildlife Conservancies
Kenya has more than 50 conservancies, acting as gates into some of the most stunning biodiversity and protected habitats in Africa. These conservancies provide special spots that blend wildlife conservation with real-life adventure catering for nature lovers and thrill seekers alike. From the famous Ol Pejeta Conservancy with a special sanctuary for chimps to Lewa Conservancy with very famous rhino protection, each of these sites creates an interesting story on the protection of wildlife. Visitors can enjoy thrilling safari drives, guided tours, and intimate viewing of Kenya’s iconic species, with added value in supporting sustainable tourism.
Selenkay Conservancy is an unfenced private conservancy adjacent to Amboseli National Park. Porini Camps established the 15,000-acre conservancy on land leased by local Maasai tribals with the goal of reducing human-wildlife conflict and expanding the buffer zone around the park. Selenkay, like Amboseli, is best known for its elephant herds.
Crescent Island, a game sanctuary on Lake Naivasha's eastern shore, was built in 1988 after the lake's water level dropped dramatically, allowing it to become part of the mainland. The terrain on the island is flat, making hiking a breeze.
The Ngare Ndare Forest is a lush indigenous forest located in the foothills of Mount Kenya.
