Ol Pejeta Rhino Watch

Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Laikipia
3 Days
Year Round
2 – 6 guests

The largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa and the last place on earth where northern white rhino exist. The two remaining females live under 24-hour armed guard. You can meet them.

Ol Pejeta is a 90,000-acre conservancy north of Nanyuki that holds more black rhino than anywhere else in Kenya. It is also the last habitat of the northern white rhino — two females, Najin and Fatu, are the only survivors of a subspecies that numbered over two thousand in 1960. Their enclosure is staffed around the clock. You can walk in with the rhino keeper.

The conservancy also holds the full Big Five, chimpanzees (rescued from conflict zones in Central Africa), and a healthy predator population. The research station is open to visitors and explains what Ol Pejeta is actually doing to prevent the extinctions it is working against.
