Loisaba Ranch

 

A beautiful, multi-faceted ranch

Loisaba is a 61,000 acre, privately owned ranch in the Laikipia region of Northern Kenya. The bulk of the land is untamed African bush with a fantastic variety of game but Loisaba is also a working cattle ranch and a fine example of sustainable land use. Important wildlife research is carried out here and the profits generated by tourism activities are dedicated to conservation and community support. Loisaba's efforts have boosted community health, education and enterprise programmes in the areas surrounding its boundaries allowing the local communities to benefit from the work done here.

Loisaba employs a number of staff and guides from the nearby Laikipiak Maasai and Samburu tribal communities who contribute to all aspects of the ranch - the lodge, the cattle farm, the stables, the security team and all the other roles that maintain its day to day running. As such, it is a fabulous place to gain an insight into fascinating traditional cultures.

 

Ultimate freedom for visitors and animals!

Crucially, because the land is privately owned, there are no game park rules and this gives Loisaba's visitors an extremely rare opportunity to discover this magnificent area free from the restrictions that are imposed in many other game-viewing regions.

As well as heading out onto the ranch in a vehicle, you can also explore on foot with a guide, by camel, on horseback or by inflatable canoe along the Ewaso Nyiro and Ng'are Narok rivers that cross the ranch. There are no time restrictions either so late night and early morning game drives are possible, opening up a whole new world of game viewing. So, visitors are free to do whatever they want, whenever they want, just like the wildlife that Loisaba nurtures.
