Ol Pejeta Bush Camp: Where Conservation Meets Authentic Safari Magic

This camp operates with a deep commitment to sustainability and community. Camp fees directly fund wildlife protection, habitat management, and community initiatives.

Ol Pejeta Bush Camp offers a classic East African safari experience that blends intimate riverfront living, unmatched wildlife conservation, and personalized service. Set on the banks of the Ewaso Ngiro River with Mount Kenya’s dramatic peaks rising in the distance, this eco-friendly camp delivers immersive wildlife encounters and real conservation impact.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel connected to the heart of Ol Pejeta Conservancy, one of Kenya’s most respected wildlife protection areas, home to the largest black rhino population in East Africa and the last surviving northern white rhinos.

Ol Pejeta Bush Camp is best experienced as part of a custom Ol Pejeta or Laikipia safari itinerary. Book a Safari to Ol Pejeta Conservancy with AK African Tours and Safaris to stay at Ol Pejeta Bush Camp or view all Ol Pejeta Conservancy lodges here.

Ol Pejeta Bush Camp Location

Ol Pejeta Bush Camp is set within the renowned Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Laikipia County, central Kenya. The camp sits on the quiet banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, with sweeping views across open plains toward Mount Kenya.

This prime riverine location attracts abundant wildlife, including elephants, giraffes, buffalo, and predators that frequently pass close to camp. Being inside a private conservancy ensures a more exclusive safari experience compared to national parks.

Ol Pejeta Conservancy is globally recognized for its rhino conservation efforts, including hosting the last remaining northern white rhinos.
